In-School Classes & Workshops

Bring a professional teaching artist from Marin Theatre Company into your school!  We will create a customized drama program that fits your community – a one-time workshop, weekly classes afterschool, or as an addition to the classroom curriculum.  Classes can introduce students to acting and the stage, or can use theatre to explore classroom subjects such as historical periods or language skills.

MTC’s Teaching Artists include professional actors appearing in our productions, and specialists in playwriting, improvisation, musical theatre, and all areas of drama.  Combine a workshop with a field trip to a student matinee performance at MTC for the ultimate educational theatre experience!
