Enjoyed playing Shakespeare book "bingo" with care-experienced pupils participating in @AimhigherWM @AstonUniversity. My taster session for @EnglishAston. A couple of cries of "full house" went up! @MichaelRosenYes almost everyone checked off Macbeth United on their cards. โ€“ at Birmingham, England

Such a pleasure to talk about Tennessee Williams' Streetcar Named Desire, as modern American drama, at an A-level English study day at Aston University Engineering Academy today. Drilling deep into things like the play's "casual" multilingualism. @EnglishAston @AstonUniversity
