“We loved our day with ‘Spot Lit’, who visited as part of our week-long Festival of Ideas. Our students benefitted enormously from ‘Spot Lit's’ text-led approach to ‘Twelfth Night’ which lead to fascinating responses varying from dramatic interpretations, short films and songs. It was a truly inspiring day and was thoroughly enjoyed by students and teachers alike. The combination of professional actors with expert English teachers is a winning one which really brings literature to life.”

— English teacher Trinity School, David. L.

“I personally found these workshops to be very useful! The acting helped to visualise the text and the gaps between each scene with discussions created a more in-depth understanding.”

— GCSE student, Lucy H.

“The actors were brilliant! The workshop really helped me remember details so much better than just my own revision at home. It helped me so much with the context needed for my exam too.”

— GCSE student, Grace P.

“I loved being able to ask the actors questions about their roles at the end! It was really good for me as a very visual learner as well. I feel that I now understand Macbeth much more fully!”

— GCSE student, Matthew S.

“A very innovative way of learning English Literature.
Seeing the scenes brought to life, the music, the props, and analysis, all added a lot to my understanding.”

— A-level student, Noah L.

“The ‘Othello’ clinic was so good, even though we had to get up 20 minutes earlier! I’ve used what I learned in essays and it’s really raised my grade.”

— GCSE student, Harrow.
