Professional Learning for Teachers.
Workshops and one-on-one mentoring to help teachers use theatre as a tool for learning.
From day-long sessions to pre-show workshops, our teaching artists and staff are committed to designing the perfect professional development workshop to serve the specific needs of your group. Workshops can take place at your school or hosted by Roundabout in midtown Manhattan.

Theatrical Teaching Institute.
Stimulate your own intellect and creativity while leveraging elements of theatre in the context of culturally responsive teaching practice. Theatrical Teaching Institute (TTI) is a pedagogical intensive introducing classroom teachers and teaching artists to Roundabout’s Theatrical Teaching Framework. Participants will engage in workshops and projects to apply theatrical elements — including theme, plot, spectacle, character, and more — to their academic content, lesson structure, classroom setting, and teaching presence.
Workshops.
Hands-on sessions crafted using theatrical strategies to meet your school’s needs and goals.
Roundabout Teaching Artists will plan and facilitate hands-on workshops crafted using theatrical strategies to meet your school’s needs and goals. Prices vary depending on the scope and scale of sessions.
Gain insight and experience in a specific technical theatre artistry, such as lighting, costume, stage management, sound, or scenic design. Participants will work with state-of-the-art tools and technology in the Roundabout Education Studio.
Roundabout Teaching Artists will plan and facilitate a workshop that explores the production’s themes and the skills of a theatrical discipline such as acting, directing, design, or playwriting.
Build ensemble, collaboration, and creative problem solving. This fast-paced workshop puts participants in the roles of designers, stage managers, actors, and marketing staff to fully produce a scene in the span of 2–3 hours. Through text analysis, design concept meetings, and theatrical rehearsals, the workshop culminates with teams presenting an excerpt from a well known play or an original scene.
“The Postcard Production workshop that Roundabout presented was a strong representation of the active learning style that we are all striving for. We look forward to taking this work further in the next year.”
