Student Matinees
Join us in 2022
At this time, we plan to offer in-person student matinees for A Raisin in the Sun and The Tempest.
We have made the difficult decision to not offer student matinees of A Christmas Carol this season. However, we are pleased to offer Dickens’ Holiday Classic, our 2020 virtual telling of A Christmas Carol, to schools at no cost. Look for information about how to request access soon.
