TheatreWorks’ student matinees aim not only to cultivate young audiences, but to inspire the next generation of theatre artists. These low-cost, daytime performances are held specially for school groups, offering youth in our community the chance to engage with stories we tell onstage amid an audience of their peers.
All student matinees will be immediately followed by a talkback session with the cast and crew of the show to allow for further discussion and education about the performance, historical aspects, production elements, and artistic careers.
Interested in having you and your students come to a show?
Student tickets are $10 each; chaperones are free.
We ask that you have at least one chaperone for every ten students.
