The ESU Performing Shakespeare competition is all about allowing students to find their voice. Performing Shakespeare gives students the opportunity to bring a monologue or duologue to life. Each form group will have at least one entrant to compete in the JHGS finals. The winner will progress to the regional finals, also held at John Hampden, and compete against other schools.
Full results from 2019 can be found below.
