"Excursion to Theaters" – A Project for School Students

With the support of the Ministry of Education and Science of Georgia, the Ministry of Culture and Monument Protection is launching a large-scale project for school students – "Excursion to Theaters", the aim of which is to foster school students' interest in theatrical art.

In connection with this project, the Minister of Culture and Monument Protection of Georgia, Mikheil Giorgadze, and the Minister of Education and Science, Tamar Sanikidze, held a briefing today.

Within the framework of the project "Excursion to Theaters", school students across Georgia will have the opportunity to visit their theater of choice, view the stage, dressing rooms, backstage, sound engineer's and lighting technician's rooms, as well as set designs and theatrical costumes. School students will become familiar with the theater's archive and history, attend a rehearsal, personally meet theater directors and actors, and benefit from a 50% discount on attendance at performances.

At the first stage of the project, 11 theaters under the subordination of the Ministry of Culture and Monument Protection will participate. Gradually, by the end of the year, all theaters in Georgia will join the project.
