Student Groups
With Arts being removed from school curriculum, what a better way for students to receive an appreciation for live theatre than a school trip to Dutch Apple? We offer performances for all ages from kindergarten to college students. Your youth/student group will still receive the same great quality, no matter what their age.
Middle School, High School and College Students
The ticket price includes the Broadway-style show, classic American cuisine buffet meal, gratuity and a question and answer session upon request. Prior to the show date, a study guide focusing on the performing arts, the theme of the show, workbook activities, and more is available for your group. Post-show meet and greets and other cast arrangements must be made one month prior to the performance date with Lauren Sobon, our Associate Producer at LSobon@dutchapple.com.

- Question and Answer sessions with the cast follow each performance.
- A study guide is available upon request for all children’s theatre productions including games, workshops, and information about the authors. Check the show page on our website to download the study guide or ask at the Box Office 717-898-1900 to receive a hard copy.
- The rate for these productions are oriented more to the economics of an elementary school function.
Home School Association Members are considered school groups and will receive the school rate with a party of 16 or more.
Please Remember: Due to fire codes, infant carriers cannot be placed on the floor and strollers are not allowed in the theatre. Booster seats are available on a limited basis. We recommend that home school groups pre-assign seating to assist in seating families together.
