We know how difficult it can be to bring a school group to the theatre. It's expensive, logistically challenging and there's no guarantee that the students will engage with the production. As such, we have developed bespoke education programmes which offer tickets, workshops, backstage tours and education resources, all completely free of charge. Not only does this mean there is no barrier to your involvement with us, but we can also develop meaningful relationships with your staff and students over several months or even years.
Over the last 7 years, we have delivered free workshops and given free tickets to over 60,000 young people across London through 20 exclusively developed bespoke education projects. Our success is no accident. For us it's about listening to the needs of local schools, teachers and students, and reacting in an inventive, thought-provoking and engaging manner. We ensure best teaching practice and quality resources are at the heart of all of our projects. Find out more about what we have on below, or access our free teaching resources and production packs.
Bring your school group for a behind the scenes day at the theatre
