School Time Shows
Each year, the Palace welcomes thousands of students to our historic theatre for free school-time performances of plays and musicals.
Produced by artists from our resident production company, Park Playhouse, these school-time presentations are selected with New York State curriculum standards in mind and are drawn from genres including history, literature, mathematics and science. Our teaching artists develop Activity & Study Guides and share them with participating schools ahead of your visit to enhance the experience for your students.
Attendance by schools is free of charge. Click here for our 2018 information packet. To make a reservation, contact Ashley Simone Kirchner, Arts & Education Coordinator, at (518) 465-3335 x113 or akirchner@palacealbany.com.
Please note, these productions also tour the Capital Region and can visit your school - check out our Scholastic Touring Shows.
Parents - even if your child's school is not participating, you can still be part of the action. These productions are also made available to the general public with low cost tickets for adults & free seating for kids as part of our Palace Family Series.
