18-19 January 2018
The Ancient Drama Festival 2018 took place on Thursday 18 and Friday 19 January. The Drama day for schools (19 January) focused around performance of Euripides’ Medea, directed by Asha Martin. The play was produced by the Classics students at Warwick, and was performed on the Main Stage of the prestigious Belgrade Theatre in Coventry.
We’d like to thank IATL, Warwick Innovation Fund, Warwick Impact Fund, and Warwick Widening Participation Fund for providing us with all the financial support we needed to produce a truly spectacular Classics Play this year.
Supporting the performance, the Department offered a series of lectures and seminars specifically for school students to link in with Latin, Greek, Classical Civilisation, Ancient History, Drama and English syllabuses at GCSE and AS/A2 (no previous knowledge of the subject area or play will be expected). These included:
