TheatreBridge: Life on Campus

TheatreBridge - Six Weeks of Immersive Theatre Study for High School Students

Personal Time

Weekends

Teams of TheatreBridge students provide front-of-house support at performances of the Brown/Trinity Playwright’s Repertory Theatre periodically throughout the program, and that support sometimes requires that students make themselves available on a Saturday night. Otherwise, unless special events or assignments are scheduled, students use weekend time for research, rehearsal and relaxation.

Co-Curricular Activities

The TheatreBridge program creates an intensive and focused work environment where students are often fully engaged in theatre-related activities throughout the day. As time allows, TheatreBridge students are invited to participate in all Summer@Brown co-curricular activities and events.
