Educational Theatre Experiences for Schools - School Matinee Series
Introduction
Welcome to the School Matinee Series, an exciting initiative by The Knowledge Nest, designed to engage schools and students in the world of theatre. Our partnership with Education Goodman Theatre aims to provide enriching theatrical experiences that combine learning and fun. Through this program, we offer schools the opportunity to attend specially curated matinee performances and access educational resources that enhance the learning experience.
Why Choose the School Matinee Series?
At The Knowledge Nest, we understand the importance of hands-on learning and believe that theatre can play a transformative role in education. Our School Matinee Series offers several key benefits:
- Enriching Theatrical Experiences: Immerse your students in the world of live performances, bringing literature, history, and social issues to life right before their eyes. It's a chance for them to witness creativity and storytelling in action and gain a deeper understanding of cultural significance.
- Educational Resources: Along with attending the matinee performances, schools also gain access to a range of educational resources developed by The Knowledge Nest and Education Goodman Theatre. These resources are designed to complement the curriculum and provide teachers with comprehensive lesson plans, discussion topics, and activities.
- Interactive Workshops: As part of the School Matinee Series, schools have the option to participate in interactive workshops led by experienced theatre professionals. These workshops provide hands-on learning opportunities, allowing students to explore various aspects of theatrical production and performance.
- Cross-Curricular Connections: Theatre is a multidisciplinary art form that bridges various subjects, making it an excellent tool for cross-curricular learning. The School Matinee Series focuses on productions that align with different areas of the curriculum, including literature, history, social sciences, and performing arts.

By attending the School Matinee Series, students have the chance to be inspired, to develop their creativity, empathy, and critical thinking skills, and to discover new perspectives on the world around them.
