BTE opens its door on select mornings for school-aged groups to enjoy our special school matinees. These educational field trips are beneficial for supplementing arts education for public, private, and home schooled students.
Some shows are not appropriate for younger ages, and are marked as such.
A talkback after a matinee performance of The Explorer's Club, 2018.
Hilda, whose grandmother tried to train her to read minds as a child, is desperate to get in touch with the other side. She finds comfort in Linda, a mentalist who claims to know 'the thin place' that separates the living and the dead. When she confesses that it is all a trick, Hilda shows her something unbelievable. Eerie and unsettling, you'll be questioning what is real and what you've imagined by the end.
