In July 2018, the Hobart Shakespeareans took the most extensive trip in their long history.

The students spent 26 days in New York, Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and New Jersey. The kids visited great universities, studied United States History, celebrated literature, embraced art, and had the time of their lives.
