Edward's Boys This all-boy company, which comprises members of the school from across the age range, explores the neglected repertoire of plays written for the boys’ companies around the turn of the seventeenth century. In recent years the company has been invited to perform at the universities of Oxford, Cambridge, Warwick and Kings College London, as well as the RSC Swan and The Other Place Theatres and the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse at Shakespeare’s Globe.

Origins
The ensemble is the brainchild of Perry Mills, Deputy Head at King Edward VI School in Stratford-upon-Avon, which is the school Shakespeare himself probably attended. Since 2005 Mills has been directing students from the school in rarely-seen plays originally written for the Early Modern boys’ companies.
