Bard fest at South High

Read Shelly's story about a Shakespeare festival at the Torrance school. Some of the games they played:

In "Macbeth's Game of Skittles," students were awarded fake-flowered leis for a successful turn in a makeshift bowling lane of plastic pins and small balls.

"The Twelfth Night Cross-Dressing Competition" praised kids for the perceived stylishness of outfits hastily assembled from a deep, dark grab bag of garments.

Attired in cardboard armor over at "Hamlet's Knight School," they took turns jousting with thin sticks.
