Education
Mirroring Writers Theatre's mission, the Education department reflects our commitment to the written word and the cultivation of young artists. WT Education’s multifaceted programs fall under four pillars: Onsite Creative Learning, Residency Programs, Student Matinees, and Touring Outreach.
Onsite Creative Learning
Writers Theatre offers a range of onsite learning opportunities for all ages, including:Residency Programs
Writers Theatre Education creates residency programs working with young people in schools and community organizations to integrate literary and theatre arts, instill an appreciation of the arts and promote civic responsibility. WT Education currently offers:
FORTS Field Trip Performances
Looking for an out-of-the-box school excursion? Book a weekday performance of the hit immersive play experience Forts: Build Your Own Adventure! for your classroom. Check the calendar for public weekday performances for our homeschool friends!
Touring Outreach
A new Touring Outreach program is currently in development. WT’s former program, The MLK Project: The Fight for Civil Rights by Yolanda Androzzo, reached over 83,000 young people from 2007-2020.
WT Education also supports the Theatre’s Community Engagement programming.
"I continue to advocate for Writers Theatre's programs because of its positive impact to the children I work with and know that each time they come to Peirce only the best results are evident."
