Sheffield University Theatre Company presents Dead Poets Society, adapted by Phoebe Cookson.
Dead Poets Society follows 7 teenage students on a journey of self discovery and expression guided by their unconventional new English teacher. Adapted from a much-loved classic, this play is fuelled by human connection and curiosity, exploring the emotional journey of challenging expectations.
A prestigious and old-fashioned all boys school welcome a new English teacher, Mr Keating, who teaches and inspires the students to reflect on themselves. Following unorthodox teaching methods, our 7 friends explore individuality, nonconformity and passion. Coming out of their shells slowly, this play shows the importance of questioning ancient traditions and instead seizing the day.
