SHAKESPEARE

Synopsis

Pre-school children’s poetry series featuring poems translated into British Sign Language and brought to life with original animation. To celebrate the 400-year legacy of William Shakespeare, Ashley and Aimee head to ancient Greece where there’s been a terrible shipwreck. Bobbles and Pink Bird dress up as identical twins, Sebastian and Viola who have lost each other at sea. Questing to find her twin Viola encounters noble men and women who are falling in love, before she’s finally reunited with Bobbles, her identical twin, because of a mole on her father’s forehead.
