Education at Roundabout

OUR MISSION

Education at Roundabout uses theatre to enhance teacher practice and deepen student learning in New York City classrooms. We are dedicated to using our professional theatre resources to accomplish the following objectives:

CREATE learning opportunities across disciplines through the exploration of theatre, and by the collaboration of educators and artists, infuse theatrical teaching strategies into the curricula.

ENGAGE students in theatre experiences that explore the universal themes of the human condition and develop their ability to think critically about the plays they attend.
 
BUILD a community of confident, expressive young people who, in producing classic and original plays, are committed to and responsible for their own learning.
 
FOSTER a new generation of artists and arts administrators by providing career development opportunities to high school and college students through internships and apprenticeships at Roundabout.
 
EXPAND the impact of Roundabout’s productions by providing historical, literary and social contexts in the classroom.
 
“Roundabout has made a difference in countless young lives and I know that the best is yet to come—so thank you! We are lucky to have partners like you as we strive to nurture the creative spark in every young New Yorker.” —Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, the City of New York
