In 2016 the Society partnered with the Victoria Shakespeare Festival to deliver an education program directed towards students in grade 7-12. The first section of this 75 minute program, "Say What? Deciphering Shakespeare's Language" was delivered by professional actors, who used a quote from Troilus and Cressida that appears on the main fireplace mantle to address how Shakespeare stayed so relevant over 400 years. In the second half of the program, students were lead through an interactive theatre exercise dealing with the playfulness of Shakespeare's language.
