Twelfth Night - Abridged for Schools and Performance
This abridged edition of Twelfth Night has been created to make Shakespeare's comedy more accessible for students while preserving the humour, characters and dramatic structure of the original play.
Carefully shortened for classroom use and performance, the script retains Shakespeare's original language and the key scenes most commonly studied in English lessons. The narrative has been streamlined so that students can follow the relationships, mistaken identities and comic situations with greater clarity, while still engaging with the richness of Shakespeare's writing.
Originally developed through practical work in schools and Theatre in Education workshops, this version has been used successfully for classroom study, rehearsal work and school productions. The abridgement focuses on maintaining pace, clarity and dramatic impact, making the play manageable for younger readers and performers without losing the spirit of the original.
This edition includes:
A streamlined script suitable for performance
Drama activities for classroom exploration
Practical staging guidance for school productions
Ideal for English and drama teachers, secondary school students, and youth theatre groups, this edition of Twelfth Night provides a practical and engaging way to study and perform one of Shakespeare's most popular comedies.
