Classes & Workshops

"Since our district does very little Shakespeare, students have increased their knowledge 200 percent. Since we do not have drama classes, students get opportunities they would never have. Also, our students can be a bit shy — this helps them become more outgoing."

- Gifted Student Coordinator, Springdale Jr./Sr. High School

The Public offers classes and workshops for youth in acting, playwriting and technical theater for ages 10-17. We also give high school and college students an opportunity to "shadow" members of our production department. All classes and workshops are held at the O'Reilly Theater. Some financial aid is available. For more information, contact Rob Zellers, Director of Education & Outreach, at 412.316.8200, ext. 715.
