Student Matinees
Tarragon offers student matinees at the low price of $10/student, and a complementary chaperone ticket for every 20 student tickets booked.
All of our student matinee performances are on Wednesdays at 1:30pm and include a post-show talkback with the cast. Free study guides are available online to complement each production and the theatre experience provides an effective way to address requirements in the new arts curriculum. In addition, we will reserve 2 complimentary tickets for a preview performance, subject to availability, so a group leader may become familiar with the production in advance of their class trip.
Please note our plays deal with mature subject matter, and we look forward to discussing the content of each play with you prior to the performance.
PLEASE NOTE: DUE TO THE NATURE OF OUR PERFORMANCE SPACES NO LATECOMERS ARE ADMITTED.
For more information and to book a performance please call 416.536.5018 x229 or e-mail .
In our current culture, which tends to spoon-feed messages to adolescents, it is refreshing to take them to a place where their minds are encouraged to think. Tarragon is such a place. I always experience discussions with my students that are probing, both emotionally and intellectually, after a Tarragon production. Jane Czarny
