Penn Live Arts teaching artists conduct up to 4 pre-performance visits in K-12 schools to prepare students for the themes, techniques, and influences they will encounter in the theatre during Student Discovery Series performances. Drawing upon background information and materials associated with the performance and/or company, teaching artists prepare developmentally appropriate, creative lesson plans of 45 minutes to 1.5 hours. Student outputs may include dance technique and choreography, scene studies and acting exercises, discussion/debate, creative writing or visual art activities.
