Teacher Preview Workshops

Ford’s Theatre offers a free preview performance and workshop to Washington-area educators who have reserved tickets for a student matinee. You will begin the evening with a complimentary dinner and networking with other teachers. Next, engage in a dynamic workshop where you’ll learn exciting ways to bring our show’s concepts back to your classroom.
