Accessibility in the Theatre

What was your first experience with the theatre? Where was it, and how did you get there? What made it memorable? My first experience with the theatre was in kindergarten; my school was performing a play. I don’t remember the play, and I don’t remember what it was about, but what I do remember is being enthralled with seeing the students on stage pretending to be someone else. I wanted nothing more than to join them.

What Are the Benefits of a School Tour Like Pinocchio?

When you think about touring shows, you may think about national Broadway tours. However, you may not know that many regional theatres bring theatre to students around the county. We are thrilled to join the ranks of school tours starting this February with Pinocchio–a found space actor-driven musical event. Market Theatre's tour aims to make theatre accessible, help young people develop emotionally and socially, and expose students to an art form that forms communities.
