Broadway in the Classroom

CAPA’s Broadway in the Classroom program introduces students from Title 1 schools to musical theatre during an engaging curriculum-based program.

CAPA staff works closely with schools to implement an in-depth curriculum that explores the educational components of a Broadway show. The students will also attend the Broadway show when it comes to Columbus, providing them with a unique and memorable theatre experience.

Previous Broadway shows include The Outsiders, & Juliet, Come From Away, and SIX.

Thanks to the generosity of Broadway in Columbus subscribers and CAPA’s donors and sponsors, the program covers all costs, including tickets and transportation.

The educator applicant will be required to supply information about their school, their classroom, and the unit they plan to create around the eligible Broadway show. Units created can explore the show’s themes, characters, music, history, or technical theatre elements. The unit must culminate in students completing a final project.

To be eligible, schools must be designated as a Title 1 school and must be located within 30 miles of downtown Columbus.
