SUMMARY:Teaching Classics in the Modern World: an Event for Classics Teachers
DESCRIPTION:A Bloomsbury Institute event for Classics teachers… \nThursday 6th October \nhttp://pages.bloomsbury.com/bloomsburyinstitute/classics \nEven a brief encounter with the ancient world is enough to stimulate young minds. The studying of classical subjects casts light over the cultural history of the West\, our languages\, literature and thought. \nLatin\, ancient Greek\, classical civilisation and ancient history have crossed the boundary from the ancient world to the modern\, continuing to inspire political thought\, science\, technology and engineering.  Latin in particular resonates through everyday life in botany\, medical and legal terminology. It even peppers popular culture and has become the language of fantasy literature\, film and magic\, especially familiar to readers of Harry Potter. \nWith the support of Classics for All\, we unearth and discover why classical subjects are a vital and applicable foundation for a modern education.  Author of Bloomsbury’s bestselling Starting to Teach Latin\, Steven Hunt\, joins Professor and broadcaster Edith Hall in conversation about the applicability of the ancient world\, and the nature of classroom classics in today’s schools. We invite you to join our expert panel\, purchase copies of their books\, and seek advice over drinks on how to engage young minds and to establish classics provisions in your schools. \nTime: Drinks at 6pm\, Talk 6.30-7.30pm \nPlace: Bloomsbury Publishing\, 50 Bedford Square\, Lodnon WC1B 3DP \nTickets: £8\, Teachers & Students £5

SUMMARY:Cambridge Greek Play 2016: Antigone and Lysistrata
DESCRIPTION:The Cambridge Greek Play Committee are thrilled to announce that the \n2016 Cambridge Greek Play will be a double bill of Sophocles’ ANTIGONE and Aristophanes’ LYSISTRATA. \nThe committee are excited to be welcoming back director Helen Eastman and composer Alex Silverman\, the team behind AGAMEMNON (2010) and PROMETHEUS/FROGS (2013)\, for their third consecutive Greek Play. The production will take place at the Cambridge Arts Theatre from 12th to 15th October 2016 (please note these dates are still provisional). \nBooking information and details for school groups will be available in April 2016. We anticipate that the production will be appropriate for students aged 14 and over; anyone wishing for advice on bringing a younger group should contact the producer\, Dr Chris Whitton (clw36@cam.ac.uk). \nGreek Play enthusiasts will also be pleased to hear about the launch of our new website\, www.cambridgegreekplay.com. The website includes full recordings of the 2013 productions of PROMETHEUS and FROGS\, audio recordings of the schools talks given before the performances\, and educational materials from the last 15 years of Greek plays. There are also photographs and archive materials from every Greek play going back to 1882. We hope that teachers and schools everywhere will make use of these resources – and we’d also welcome feedback on the kinds of resources we could provide in future.

SUMMARY:Antigone. A Woodford County High School Production
DESCRIPTION:News of an exciting student production of Antigone… \nA student (Years 9-12) production of Antigone will be performed at Woodford County High School (High Road\, Woodford Green\, IG8 9LA (North-east London)) in our Greek Theatre.
