FIELD TRIPS

 

Roseville Theatre Arts Academy's Field Trip Series for elementary school students includes a range of performances designed to introduce children to live theatre and to captivate their imaginations with the excitement of staged performances. 

Exposure to, and participation in, performing and visual arts provides young people with authentic learning experiences that engage their minds, hearts, and bodies. Education research confirms that engagement in the art also nurtures the development of cognitive and social skills. 

There's simply no better way to introduce students to the performing arts than by attending an engaging and affordable performance at Roseville Theatre Arts Academy. The shows in our exciting Field Trip Series are well-suited for children in Pre-Kindergarten through Fifth Grade and for children's groups which include ages 4 through 11.

Using a combination of magic and common sense, she must teach the family members how to value each other again. Mary Poppins takes the children on many magical and memorable adventures, but Jane and Michael aren't the only ones upon whom she has a profound effect.
