Dear Educator,
Welcome to another
season of Airport Playhouse’s Educational Theater. Above you will find
the schedule for 2007/2008, featuring our ever-popular contemporary
interpretation of “Romeo and Juliet”. In addition to this, we are sure
you will find many exciting theatrical opportunities for your students.
Not only can you come to our comfortable 255-seat theater but also many
of our productions can be brought into your school building.
As always, we provide study guides for pre and
post show discussions. Your students may also have the opportunity to
participate in an educational question and answer period with the
performers.
Information for restaurants around the theater can
be provided to help you round out the field trip experience. In
addition, should students need to bring their own snack, we can provide
accommodations.
All of our productions are not only linked to the
New York State Learning Standards but BOCES approved for funding. In
addition to a low theater ticket price of $6.00 per ticket for most
performances, we offer one free chaperone ticket with each 15 paid
students. For traveling shows, please call for prices. We are
happy to work with you if additional time is needed for payment due to
purchase order processing. We can also customize the length of our
performances to fit your schedule.
For reservations, information or personalized
requests, please contact our box office at (631) 589-7588. We look
forward to hearing from you to book an Educational Theater experience
that deserves a standing ovation.
