Cambridge University's CAST Brings Shakespeare's Henry V to Sebastian River High School's Performing Arts Center on September 3 rd at 7:30 P.M

Shakespeare! Sebastian! September 3!

The Cambridge University American Stage Tour (CAST) brings William Shakespeare's Henry V to Sebastian River High School (SRHS) on September 3 at 7:30 P.M. Be prepared to witness a tale of conspiracy and betrayal, of royalty and treachery, of romance and conquests, as this dynamic and dramatic production makes you question where heroism ends and immorality begins. All proceeds will benefit the SRHS International Baccalaureate (IB) Program.

In addition to the evening performance, CAST will present a series of workshops for local drama students throughout the day at SRHS.

What is the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program?

The IB Program is a rigorous college preparatory program based on international educational standards of excellence. SRHS IB students competed with over 30,000 students across the globe and surpassed the world-wide average with 85.7 percent of IB Diploma candidates earning the IB Diploma in 2008 compared to the 78 percent world average. The SRHS IB Program has produced a Rhodes Scholar and each year, IB students at SRHS have been accepted at the most prestigious universities in the country-, including Harvard, Duke, all of the U.S. military academies, Vanderbilt, Dartmouth, Colgate, and the University of Florida. IB Students have earned millions of dollars in scholarships over the past ten years. Students in the IB Program also earn college credit for successful performance on IB assessments, often achieving sophomore status when they enter college. Support of this major fundraiser will not only give local citizens a rare opportunity to enjoy authentic Shakespearean theatre, it will also provide funding for the curricular enhancements needed to operate this world class program at SRHS.

"We beseech you to support our world class IB Program at Sebastian River High School."
