STUDENT MATINEES 2026 2027
CONNECT. INSPIRE. TRANSFORM. We know you want to give your students high-quality educational experiences that will impact their lives in meaningful, positive ways that last long after they’ve left your classroom. Our Student Matinee field trips connect them to the awe-inspiring world of the performing arts, where their lives (and yours) just might be transformed—forever. Student Matinees are national touring productions featuring professional performers. You and your students get great seats for these thought-provoking and thrilling performances. Each one is specifically designed in length and content for a school audience. These field trips give you plenty to talk about after the show, and you’ll get free study guides to make the most of the experience.
Browse the shows, make your choices, and reserve your spots for your class. We look forward to welcoming you and your students to another season of Student Matinees at the Peace Center.
