Pacific Beach Middle International Baccalaureate World School won a
trophy for best scene at the Shakespeare Festival in Balboa Park. Eight
Pacific Beach Middle International Baccalaureate World School students —
Sophie Adams, Vance Allan, Nicholas Archer, Ryleigh Maple, Whitney
Marshall, Nina Morch, Sophie Reich and Emma Rodriguez — with the
assistance of their history and art teacher Mrs. Liebke and Music
teacher Mr. O’Donnell, performed a scene at the Shakespeare Festival in
Balboa Park in May.
The
scenes had to be 9-11 minutes long, could be interpreted openly, but
had to stick to Shakespeare’s words. Nina put together a compilation of a
scene from Hamlet and a scene from Macbeth that all students performed.
