Re:ACT—Residency
 In-School Residencies
Looking for a creative and effective means of addressing the standards of
learning? Look no further than Re:ACT In-School Residencies!
Re:ACT In-School Residencies provide practical, hands-on learning opportunities
for students utilizing the creative arts, specifically theatre. The central
goal of the program is to use theatre techniques to enhance teaching and learning
in, through and about the arts. Residencies are tailored to your existing curriculum
or programming. Each residency is designed collaboratively with classroom teachers
to provide students an experience that deepens curriculum goals, explores Shakespeare
texts, or provides students an opportunity to learn about the process of creating
theatre. They are taught by experienced teaching artists, many of whom are
featured on the stages of the Shakespeare Theatre Company and other theatres
around the D.C.-metro area. Re:ACT residencies are fee-based and can be developed
as a one-day workshop to semester- or year-long residencies, depending on your
needs. Appropriate for students in grade one through high school.
 Bring the interactive learning process into your classroom!
Out-of-School Residencies
Whether conducted during non-school hours in a school, community center or
parks and recreation center, RE:ACT Out-of-School residencies expose participants
to the joy and craft of theatre. Students learn to utilize their bodies, voices
and imaginations to develop characters, analyze classic texts and learn and
explore the power of story. The students develop confidence, learn to collaborate
as an ensemble and strengthen creative expression skills. Re:ACT residencies
are fee-based and can be developed as a one-day workshop to semester- or year-long
residencies, depending on your needs. Appropriate for students aged 6 through
18.
 *In order to provide the optimum experience for your students, please
book residencies at least four weeks in advance of your anticipated start
date. Fees are based on the type, residency length, degree of customization
and number of students impacted. Mileage may be accessed for programs beyond
the metro area.
