Perry Mills is Deputy Headmaster at King Edward VI School, Stratford-upon-Avon (generally known as “Shakespeare’s School”). For most of his career he has been a Head of English and Drama. Throughout his career he has directed plays, and in recent years has developed ‘Edward’s Boys’ (www.edwardsboys). 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.
