Student Matinee Series

We create special student matinee performances for each of our mainstage productions so students in our region can experience live professional theatre.

Students from throughout the region have the opportunity to come to Gulfshore Playhouse to see world-class professional theatre and talk with the actors and directors about the meanings and themes of the plays.

Tickets are $5 per student for student matinee performances. Tickets must be booked at least two weeks in advance. For questions, please contact Steven Calakos at scalakos@gulfshoreplayhouse.org.
