For Schools

For 35 years, the Tony Award winning Lookingglass Theatre Company has been collaborating with schools to build performances, community, and each student’s unique Voice. Through field trips, at-school residency programs, and streaming platforms, Lookingglass offers a number of ways to bring world-class artistry into the classroom.


Bring Students to Lookingglass

Field Trips Bring your students to Lookingglass to see a spectacular show, participate in a workshop, or tour our historic home, the Water Tower Water Works. All field trips include an activity guide and post-show discussion.  

Workshops Three strands of programming are available for school-day or after school programming: Creative Community, Arts Integration, and Performance Capstone. Our residency programs explore the themes, techniques, and magic we create each season on our stages.   Download our programming PDF to learn more. School partners receive behind-the-scenes access to our performances, too.

“Our teaching artist was excellent, and I would love to work with her again. She was easy to collaborate with, and I really admired the way she allows students to express themselves without judgment.” 

Mary Fessler, Bell Elementary, 3rd Grade Teacher, 2025
