'Shakespeare versus Birmingham' exhibition at the Library of Birmingham
Reimagining Shakespeare's stories in Birmingham
Pupils from University of Birmingham School were challenged by Stan's Cafe to re-stage Shakespeare on their doorstep.
Taking inspiration from Shakespeare's plays, they matched their own photographs with some from Birmingham's historic Shakespeare collection.
The result is a series of diptychs that speak to how Shakespeare relates to the lives of young people today.
Free exhibition in the Shakespeare Memorial Room on the 9th floor of the Library of Birmingham.
