Education

Capital Repertory Theatre's Education Programs are specially designed to bring the magic of theatre to the youth of the Capital District. Through varying programs, Capital Rep provides students with an interest in theatre the opportunity to experience it as active participants either as audience members or on-stage. Capital Rep is also dedicated to enhancing the lives of teachers and recognizing their invaluable contributions to our community's future generations through discounts, workshops and awards.

Student Matinee Performances

Each season, Capital Rep opens its doors to hundreds of students who experience selected Capital Rep productions during the school day. Matinees are followed by an intimate question and answer session with Capital Rep staff and cast members of the production. In addition, one show per season is chosen to be part of Capital Rep's Classics on Stage series, which focuses on producing a work that can be easily integrated into the New York school curriculum.
