Green Tea & Little Green Tea Youth Theatre Programs

Green Tea (and its younger version, Little Green Tea) is Sweet Tea Shakespeare’s young company and enrichment program for young people. The company prides itself on making Shakespeare accessible to youth through its innovative approach that is intended to inspire creativity and introduce young people to quality theatre including an emphasis on physicality, music and text.

Green Tea works to inspire creativity and performance, introduce young people to quality theatre and build a greater understanding of the world around them.

What We Offer to Educators & Parents

Staffed by a team of highly qualified educators, STS has a history of school performances, study guide and lesson plan building, internships, workshops, and other hands-on experiences with students of all ages centered around theatre, English and language arts, history, physicality, and music.

We engage in direct audience and student interaction and imaginative staging and connection- making. We offer limited STUDENT MATINEES and plenty of workshops and assembly programs focused on access to language, live theatre, and engagement for both teachers and students.

All programs align with measurable NC learning standards.

School Performances

SCHOOL SHOWINGS are available for booking now. We typically offer two titles per year (fall and spring) of Shakespeare or Shakespeare-adjacent plays. Teachers, educational staff, faculty, and administrators may arrange tour bookings for audiences ranging from one class to an entire school or district. Sweet Tea Shakespeare can also assist with locating a venue if one is not available. School performances are extremely affordable, and funding assistance may be available. School performance bookings receive a free study guide and lesson plans crafted by STS professionals. Highly engaging workshops and guest lectures centered around the production and Shakespearean text and acting are also available. To book a school performance, or for more information, contact info@sweetteashakespeare.com or call 910-420-4383.

STS is part of The Arts Council of Fayetteville & Cumberland County’s Artists in Schools Program, which provides matching subsidies and other funding for public schools in the County.

Workshops

Select classrooms gain access to STS artists on a smaller scale. Workshops include activities meant to activate and empower students’ learning toward NC state learning standards and focus on language, leadership, embodiment, empathy, problem-solving, and engagement.

INTERNSHIPS

High school and college students and emerging professionals seeking additional experience and/or credit in theatre can earn it with Sweet Tea Shakespeare.

To apply, or more information, contact Jeremy Fiebig at artistic@sweetteashakespeare.com  or 910-420-4383.

Residencies

We offer intensive, short term, or year-long residencies with classrooms or courses, and specialize in those that can culminate in an in-class or public performance. We also offer performance coaching of plays and musicals where STS company members attend rehearsals, lead workshops, and aid in student performances.

Residencies include everything from improvisational work to deep study in the text and performance, with plenty of targeted lessons to help grow students in the discipline and as human beings. STS builds bespoke programs for each classroom situation based on principles of integrated course design.
