NORTHLIGHT STUDENT SERIES:

Season Access

Northlight's comprehensive Season Access program provides students grades 8-12 with the opportunity to attend mainstage productions at one of Chicago's leading resident theatres while supporting broad integration of the arts into the curriculum with a full range of classroom-oriented materials and artist visits.

This performance series allows schools and teachers to customize their season package by choosing three of the season's five plays.

The Season Access package includes:

Pre- and post-show in-class visits by a Northlight teaching artist to engage students in activities and discussion of the themes of the show
$4 off the regular student ticket price
Cross-disciplinary study guides and copies of scripts (For example, download the Season's Greetings Study Guide)
Post-show discussions with Northlight actors and education staff
Free advance viewings of productions for teachers

Tickets to the Season Access program are just $8 per show with a three-show minimum commitment. Teachers and chaperones are always free. (If your school cannot commit to the full Season Access program but are interested in bringing students to a show, click here.)
