Children who have been exposed to performing arts can show a higher awareness of the world around them and establish greater levels of acceptance and understanding. The cultivation of expression of emotional intelligence is especially significant as it can facilitate positive and productive peer conflict resolution and educate students on how to express their emotions in appropriate ways.
The Ritz Theatre Discovery Series presents four programs annually for various grade levels in accordance with the State of Ohio dictates that school-age children should be exposed to and offered the arts as part of their education. Special Study Guides precede each performance offering ways for teachers to tie the student’s experience to the classroom with activities that help them explore, ask questions, interact and better understand what they see.
A trip to The Ritz is a connection to the past and a special cultural adventure. Coming to this historic treasure makes powerful memories for students and adults alike.
The experience could be one of the most priceless events of the school year.
