Enhance your students’ ability to interpret classic texts by bringing them to any of our student matinee performances. You and your students will see a full scale professional production (never abridged or adapted), in addition to being provided with a curriculum guide and given the opportunity to participate in a guided talk back discussion with the actors in the show!
