Romeo & Juliet - Shakespeare?s tragedy about two ?star-crossed lovers? - is an English literary masterpiece studied at Key Stage 2 and 3 as part of the National Curriculum in England, as well as at schools and colleges elsewhere in the UK and around the world. In this new Micromusical adaption, the abridged story is told through poetry and song. Testimonials The micro-musicals have enriched our curriculum and have enabled the topics taught in class to come alive. Through the micro-musicals, the children have gained a deeper and broader understanding of the curriculum and have developed a bank of rich language, which has supported their writing outcomes. The micro-musicals have provided an excellent opportunity to teach music through all areas of the curriculum and we have been able to use music as a platform to learn history, science, geography and literature. They have been a good value for money and a valuable resource. -Bronwen Chalmers, Head Teacher, Davies Lane Primary School
