Samsung: Shakespeare reimagined


Samsung Electronics UK has teamed up with the Royal Shakespeare Company to launch a new app starring famous actors, a rapper and a beatboxer to bring Shakespeare to life for 11-18 year olds. The Android app, called RE:Shakespeare, features interactive games and videos and is hosted by RSC ambassador, David Tennant. It also stars the renowned actress, Tamsin Greig, beatboxing artist Shlomo, rapper and poet Akala, and acclaimed director, Iqbal Khan.
These charismatic mentors break up long scenes from Shakespeare plays into bite-size chunks and transform difficult lines into fun lyrical challenges, helping students to re-interpret, re-mix and perform Shakespeare like never before.
