The Hobart Shakespeareans

There is something extraordinary happening in a Los Angeles inner-city elementary school. A 5th grade teacher named Rafe Esquith is inspiring his classes towards excellence through an incredible array of teaching methods that peak with a yearly performance of a Shakespearean play. The children’s work brings such greats as Sir Ian McKellum and Michael York to the audience. Share the joy and wonder of a group of 9- to 11-year-olds as they learn, grow, blossom, and discover themselves in this unlikely and awe-inspiring classroom. A film you will not soon forget.
