Connections: A Theater Arts Residency

Imagination Theater residency programs are aligned with the Illinois State Board of Education Learning Standards in Theater. Students not only learn about theater, improvisation, and role-play, but they also explore a variety of social emotional learning topics during the program. 

Over the course of 10 weeks, students build a sense of community and collaboration through theater games and exercises. These same exercises work on healthy communication and problem-solving.

Focusing on a theme such as empathy, conflict resolution, or respect, students create an original piece of theater that will then be showcased to the rest of the school at the conclusion of the program. 

Residencies can be altered due to a school’s needs and schedule. Pricing depends on the number and length of sessions as well as the number of teaching artists needed.
