Santa Cruz Shakespeare Presents Student Matinee Week And Educators Day

Santa Cruz Shakespeare is proud to present our new Student Matinee Week premiering after the 2018 Summer Season. Our professional production of Romeo & Juliet will remain open for four student-only matinee performances running through September 4-7. These 10am matinees are for students and their chaperones only, and include a post-show discussion with the actors after each performance.

For educators who would like teaching resources for Romeo & Juliet, please sign up for our Educators Day on Friday, August 3. We will provide lesson plans that incorporate exciting on-your-feet activities that help make Shakespeare's texts fun for students. Educators Day offers a one-day training workshop to provide educators the tools, strategies, and lesson plans through visceral experiences in the instruction of Shakespeare with an emphasis on Romeo & Juliet. Educators Day is sponsored in partnership with Shakespeare Workshop, a program with the Institute for Humanities Research at UC Santa Cruz.
