Will to Win: California Shakespeare Festival

Synopsis
Documentary. In six weeks, two dozen student actors from Palisades High School in Los Angeles take four Shakespeare plays (King Lear, Richard II, The Winter’s Tale, and The Merry Wives of Windsor) and cut them to eight minutes each. They cast, rehearse, and then compete against fifty other high schools for the First Place trophy in the Southern California Shakespeare Festival.
