Perry Mills is the Founder and Director of the unique company Edward’s Boys, based at Shakespeare’s School in Stratford-upon-Avon where he has worked for many years. This world-renowned all-boy acting troupe have produced many largely-forgotten early modern plays, changing they way we think about the boys’ acting companies of Shakespeare’s time and the plays they performed. As well as learning new skills, acquiring confidence, and encouraging creativity, Mills has created a culture in which the boys teach and learn from each other. Visitors welcome for £10.
