In-School Program

    

In-school workshops are the ultimate opportunity to engage your students with classic plays. Members of our ensemble visit your classroom to provide the highest level of insight into Shakespeare's stories and characters, preparing students for an amazing day at the theatre, or as an exciting follow up to their show.

Starting at only $10 per student, the In-School Program is an affordable stand-alone option, or, paired with a visit to our productions, the best way to bring Shakespeare to life for your students.
