Subsidies and Funding

Subsidized Play Companion Workshops

Subsidized Play Companion Workshops offer students the experience of engaging in pre- and post-show workshops connected to a YPT performance at a highly subsidized rate. Subsidized Play Companion Workshops are offered to specific schools that are selected in consultation with the Arts Departments at the TDSB and TCDSB. 

Subsidized Play Companion Workshops include pre- and post-show workshops for one class, as well as up to 30 complimentary tickets. The pre-show and post-show workshops will guide students through a series of drama exercises to more deeply engage and explore the themes in the play. Workshops are in-person and 60 minutes in length. Teachers will schedule the workshops in coordination with YPT.

Subsidized Play Companion Workshops are $150.00 per class and include up to 30 complimentary tickets to the YPT performance.
