On The Right Track Early

THE HOBART SHAKESPEAREANS is a delightful profile of a phenomenal teacher and his eager students who together, touchingly demonstrate the power of education. With genuine passion, Esquith turns the children of a poor, violence-stricken central Los Angeles neighborhood on to the wonders of Shakespeare. Academy Award®-nominated director Mel Stuart (Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory) deftly probes the secrets of Esquith's winning strategy in this uplifting tribute. In this clip, Rafe Esquith instills the values of hard work and dedication to his eager, preteen pupils in preparation for Hamlet.
