Give your students a field trip to remember! Attend a Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre Student Matinee, and your class will experience a full-length, main-stage production of the highest caliber. Engage in the world of theater through lavish sets, colorful costumes and dramatic lighting. Learn about ballet and dance through the artistry and athleticism of PBT’s professional dancers. Discover the beautiful Benedum Center for the Performing Arts, a jewel in Pittsburgh’s cultural crown. Last season nearly 4,000 students experienced the magic of a Pittsburgh Ballet Theatre Student Matinee!
Join us this year for thrilling ballet and breathtaking fantasy in our matinee performances of The Nutcracker and Cinderella. All school groups receive a Teacher Resource Guide containing information about the ballet and curricular support that aligns with PA Academic Standards. Student groups of 40 or more (and within a one-hour drive of Pittsburgh) are eligible for a free, 45-minute preparatory program that brings dancers to your school for an up-close look at ballet and ballet training.
