Focus Play Workshops

Our Focus Play Workshop’s offer Educators the opportunity to get an insider’s view of each selected production. The workshops could include:

  • Script/story readings with group discussion of themes and topics featured in the production
  • Discover production elements, meet production and artistic staff as workshop facilitators
  • Enact scenes from the play (learn tools of the actor)
  • Come away with drama strategies directly related to the production that will enhance student learning and help them prepare their classes field trip.

Each of the Saturdays listed below from 8:30 a.m.- 2:30 p.m. with a 1 hour lunch break and opportunity to see the matinee directly following the workshop. (with the exception of Red Badge of Courage)
