Member School Inquiry Project

Discovery Day: Tour/Rehearsal Observation – March 24

Learning Session – March 31

Learning Day: Workshops/Job Shadows – April 13

For: Member School, Grades 5&6

This day will introduce students to the world of the theatre beyond performance and the actors they see on stage. By observing a wide range of people, workplaces and activities, students will think about who does what and how all of the pieces and departments work together.

Components:

• Tours of YPT, including backstage and all of the production shops.
• Rehearsal observation of The Wizard of Oz.

This Discovery Day will take place at YPT. Students will be broken into smaller groups for the tours/rehearsal observations to maximize engagement.

Member Schools

YPT’s Member Schools program aims to create a deeper relationship between participating schools and the theatre. YPT works with school leadership to create a three-year partnership agreement specifically tailored to the aims and needs of that particular school. Each partnership is different but all include increased attendance at the theatre, enrichment for students and teachers, as well as research with and by the participating school’s students and staff. We provide Member Schools with a special rate for tickets and enrichment programming, thus allowing them to take full advantage of the many opportunities we offer.
