SUMMARY:Relaxed Performance of Jacob Two-Two Meets the Hooded Fang
DESCRIPTION:These performances are specifically designed for young people with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). Relaxed performances may include adjusted sound and lighting levels\, a designated relief area outside of the Mainstage theatre\, and additional support before and during your visit. When we held our first relaxed performance in the 2014/15 season\, we learned a great deal about how small changes and additions to the resources and environment provided can have a big impact. YPT’s relaxed performances are geared toward young people with ASD\, but are also suitable for all young audiences and can be an especially good introductory experience for first-time theatregoers. \n\n“I would like to thank YPT for taking on this initiative. At the relaxed performance I attended\, it was very exciting to see the kids and staff engage in such a safe and supportive environment. The thought and time put into the accommodations for those in the audience with ASD was very impressive. Parents and teachers bringing children with ASD to these performances should feel very confident that their experience will be very positive. This programming is an incredible opportunity to support all kids in the way that all kids need to learn!” \n    – Jan Fukumoto\,  Co-ordinator Autism Services\, Special Education\,\nToronto District School Board \n\nVisitors may find it helpful to watch this “Visiting YPT” video prior to attendance! \nIn order to book your tickets\, please call our Box Office at 416.862.2222. \nFor more information\, contact Lois Adamson\, Member Schools & Education Manager at 416.363.5131 x224 or email ladamson@youngpeoplestheatre.org.

SUMMARY:P@ndora Member School Workshop
DESCRIPTION:P@ndora Member School Workshop\nYPT’s P@ndora Member School Workshop is focused on exploring the play’s following themes: body image\, self esteem\, the impact of explicit imagery on adolescent sexuality and negotiating the intersection of real life and online relationships. YPT Resident Artist Educators work with students to explore these themes through a series of dramatic exercises. With specific curriculum expectations in place\, these active workshops are designed to enhance students’ understanding and experience of P@ndora. \nMember School Program\nYPT’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. \nResident Artist Educators\nThe Resident Artist Educator program at YPT furthers the theatre’s leadership in the field of arts education at a professional theatre company. The Resident Artist-Educator Program is planned for each participant to be involved in YPT’s productions as well as work as a teaching artist in residence. As both artists and educators\, each participant creates\, teaches and learns during their residency thereby embodying the company’s dual identity as a professional theatre and centre of arts education. To see a full list of YPT’s Resident Artist Educators for the 2015/2016 season\, click here.
