Backstage on Broadway is a theatre education program structured to expose students to the excitement and hard work behind the scenes of the entertainment world. The seminars, sightseeing options, and performances give your students a revealing look into the theatre industry.
Tour guides take you and your students to the heart of the action, visiting entertainment landmarks such as the New Amsterdam Theatre, Radio City Music Hall, and touring NBC Studios. Students attend a Broadway play or musical or an Off Broadway show of your choice. They may also take an in-depth tour of the Theatre district and see firsthand where many artists made their start.
Each Field Studies Center program is carefully planned to meet your objectives and the school's requirements for course credit, where necessary.
