Field Trips at the Straz Center

Field Trip Performance Series
Today kicked off our Field Trip Performance Series at the Straz Center with The Hundred Dresses.

Hundreds of students got to visit the Straz Center for a live performance in Ferguson Hall, which hopefully got them thinking about their own actions towards their peers. Are they tolerant of others, or do they judge or tease people who look or dress or act differently?

The Field Trip Series, with shows throughout the year, are a great way for students to experience the performing arts and provides teaching opportunities.

Upcoming shows:

Bullyproof: The Muiscal - Oct. 26

Zorro - Nov. 1

Jazz at the Straz: Blues, Bop and Hip-Hop - Nov. 2




Day at the Center


Tomorrow we host our first Day at the Center.

A Day at the Center is a new education initiative that provides students and educators with a guided tour of the public and backstage spaces of the Straz Center and the Patel Conservatory.

After the tour, students have a brown bag lunch in Maestro’s Café and participate in a workshop geared towards their grade/age level. Workshops may include dance, theater, music and production.Through these workshops, students and teachers will gain exposure to the performing arts, and strengthen the arts education experience.
