All educators are provided with our Playguide, which includes a brief play synopsis, background information on the play and its historical/literary context. The playguide helps students identify principle themes and contemporary resonance as well as familiarize and prepare them for the production. This tool will enhance your theatre experience and connect your classroom to our stage!

Talkbacks and Engage with the Stage Workshops:

Following each student matinee performance, students have the opportunity to interact with our actors and production crew in a moderated ”talkback” session. These sessions give students the time to ask questions of the company and discuss the ideas raised in the play.
