Education & families series

Teachers are our friends - being the most important link between live performance and your students is very special. You are the ones that introduce our youth to the joys of theatre and the wonder of learning whilst gaining life skills in an environment unmatched by any another.

The Season 2020 Education & Families Series provides a range of family-friendly experiences and events perfect for school visits.

The performing arts and the experience of live theatre stimulates imagination and communication. It ignites the sense and can be lots of fun.

Generational Shared Experience

We believe live theatre is an excellent activity for families to experience together. It promotes discussion and communication. We actively encourage grandparents to take their grandchildren to the theatre. The shared experience can contribute to the personal growth of these young people. It can educate, inspire and entertain. Why not create a shared school community experience by having your P&C organise a group families booking. This is a great way for families to connect and interact.

Teacher Resource Kits, Activity Sheets and Workshops & The Q &A

In manycases Teacher Resource Kits and Activity Sheets are provided to those Teachers that have made a booking to the corresponding show. After a booking has been made, you will be sent a link to the kit or an email attachment, often with a password for ease of access. With some productions, free education workshops are available - places are limited and workshops fill up very quickly. In some cases additional sessions may be available depending on demand. For further information regarding education resources please contact Carolyn Stier on 6767 5200 or email c.stier@tamworth.nsw.gov.au.

The performing arts are an important part of the social fabric of a community.
