2. Currently in our school, drama activities are not undertaken, but some years ago four theatrical performances by Shakespeare were made on the scene with great success and enthusiasm.

3. The plays were performed by the students of the IV and V class high school and they were coordinated by the English teacher and other teachers of the school. The works were properly adapted and performed entirely in English. This project was done by the students, who were responsable for the costumes, music, choreography and everything else that was necessary for the success of the performance.
