Sign-Up!: Exclusive Free Access to National Theatre Filmed Productions and Valuable Resources for NYC Public School Students.
I am delighted to offer free access to the National Theatre Collection for NYC public schools and educators. The initiative aims to reach 30,000 students of all abilities and across all boroughs.
The National Theatre Collection -- showcasing a variety of theatrical productions, styles, diverse playwrights and creative actors, designers, and backstage crew – serves as a tremendous resource for truly blended instruction to engage students in the study of the worlds of these plays and in performance. The program includes quality educational resources for teachers and students including study guides, director notes, and sample lesson plans, as well as NYC Arts Office support on using these resources.
These diverse productions provide windows and mirrors. Through the National Theatre’s provocative collection, Over 300 teachers and over 25,000 NYC DOE students have experienced stories from other cultures and time periods, enabling them to reflect on their own communities and realities.
"Through working with this program, I am now questioning who I am. I'm seeing things through different perspectives" – participating student.
