Educator Discounts
The IRT is a strong supporter of those who educate our youth! As a token of our appreciation, educators receive discounted tickets. Educators can purchase $10 tickets for themselves and half-price tickets for family ($25 minimum price on tickets after the discount) to all First Performances (the first Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday) of a show’s run. For all other performances, educators can receive half-price tickets ($25 minimum price on tickets after the discount) for themselves and their families.
During A Christmas Carol, educators can purchase $10 tickets for themselves and half-price tickets for family ($25 minimum price on tickets after the discount) to any November performance and can receive half-price tickets ($25 minimum price on tickets after the discount) for themselves and their families for any other performance date.
Identification is required to take advantage of these discounts. The IRT will request identification to be shown in-person when receiving your tickets at the Ticket Office.
High School Workshops
For high school students with more targeted artistic goals, IRT Education offers a series of full day workshops! Professional, highly trained IRT teaching artists will guide young theatre makers in specialized skill sets like audition technique, playwriting, and prop production. These process-based workshops offer a deeper dive, more individual attention, and a fun learning environment where students can explore their expanding theatrical interests!
