Bringing a school or college group to the Almeida Theatre is a unique experience. Not only do we provide hugely subsidised top price tickets to see the show, we also include a free introductory workshop held at your school; working around your timetable to help students gain insight into the play that they are about to see.
In addition, your group will be met by their very own host who will make them feel welcome at the Almeida Theatre, enhancing your visit by being on hand throughout the performance to answer any questions that they might have. Your host will also give you a number of free programmes and an Educational Resource Pack to accompany the production.

Free Introductory Workshops
Our Introductory Workshops are designed to give participants an insight into how our productions have been created and to complement curriculum learning, prior to your visit to the Almeida Theatre.
Please note that during busy periods and for popular productions, priority is given to Islington and local authority schools.
For more information, contact projects@almeida.co.uk. To book tickets for your group, call our Box Office on 020 7359 4404.
Looking for something more specific?
We also offer workshop packages tailored specifically to your drama and performing arts curriculum. Packages are available for selected productions from the Almeida Theatre’s back catalogue and can be designed around specific aspects of theatre-making on request. Please note, workshop packages do incur a fee, however we aim to be flexible and work within your budget.
