Study at Shakespeare's Globe in London with AIFS Abroad

Study theater and Shakespeare in London with AIFS Abroad during a three-week summer program at Shakespeare’s Globe! Earn 3 college credits while learning on-site at one of the world’s most famous theaters and experiencing London as a center for theater, performance, and the arts.

Take "Shakespeare’s Globe: History and Performance," a course taught at the reconstructed Globe Theatre on the banks of the River Thames. You’ll learn from the Globe’s education team, including accomplished directors, actors, and other theater practitioners, while exploring Shakespeare’s work through both academic study and performance.

Your experience extends well beyond class. Attend two performances at Shakespeare’s Globe, explore London’s theater scene, and travel to Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare’s birthplace. Cultural activities may also include London sightseeing, walking tours and additional theater performances.

The program includes tuition for 3 credits awarded by Fairfield University, student residence housing, a London transportation pass, cultural and social activities, excursions, comprehensive insurance, on-site support, and 24/7 emergency assistance.

Whether you study theater, literature, English, or simply want to experience Shakespeare in a completely different way, this summer study abroad program gives you the chance to learn about his work in the theater most closely associated with it—and experience London as your classroom.
