YOUNGSTERS were treated to Shakespeare by the professionals when a theatre group visited their school.
Belmont Comprehensive, in Durham, invited the Black Cat Theatre Company to perform Macbeth for its year nine students, who are studying the play.
The actors entertained the year group with the dark tale of murder and intrigue, before answering pupils' questions on the subject.
Belmont School is keen on promoting drama and the arts, and hopes to achieve specialist status in the field.
Key stage three coordinator Liz Donnini said it was important for students to see live theatre.
"We have had theatre groups in the past, and we are keen to take the students on theatre visits as often as we can," she said.
