Why Your Support Is Important

Help a child to experience the wonder and thrill of the theatre by sending a boy or girl to participate in the Centre In The Square's School Program. Under this program, elementary school children are provided with either highly subsidized or complimentary tickets to special school day curriculum-based theatre productions at the Centre In The Square.

The benefits to young people attending the theatre are many, including: fostering their imagination and creativity, encouraging cooperative social behaviour, and giving them the opportunity to experience positive role models. Many of our city's youth depend on the Centre In The Square's School Program for their first exposure to the magic of live performing arts. Likewise, the benefits to our community from helping children to appreciate the wonder of culture are invaluable.

Dear Maureen,

Thanks again Maureen for providing our primary students with tickets to view the performance of Nightlight. The students enjoyed their visit to Centre In The Square and for many of them, this was the first opportunity that they have had to attend a live performance outside of the school.
Our students were very excited about the performance, and upon their return to school were busy sharing their favourite parts with their teachers and classmates. We appreciate the fact that you considered us when contacting schools!

Sincerely,

R. Paling
