Backstage Xperience
Kids + Performing Arts = The Backstage Xperience
Each year, nearly 900 school-aged students and their chaperones have the opportunity to attend the Backstage Xperience at the Barn Theatre. We hope to have even more this season, including an adult Backstage Xperience!
2025 LINEUP ANNOUNCEMENT COMING SOON!
What is the Backstage Xperience?
Students get to experience hands-on learning about professional theatre production during the interactive presentations of technical and performance aspects of theatre. They will tour the theatre, including technical design areas that are typically off-limits to the public! Q&A sessions will accompany the demonstrations and their experience in attending the evening’s musical! Backstage Xperience also includes a meal for the children!
How does it work?
Form your own group of 4 youth per every 1 chaperone, and don’t miss this amazingly fun, educational opportunity.
- FREE to kids
- Chaperones pay just $43! (plus fees)

“It’s an amazing opportunity to spark students’ creativity and drive their passion for theatre as well as their passion to succeed in life.”
– Producing / Artistic Director, Brendan Ragotzy
“Students will learn the specific technical work that went into the show. They’ll see renderings of costumes, learn choreography for a dance number, and learn about the techniques that went into the construction of the amazing set pieces for the shows, and then see it all come to life on stage.”
– School Dean Penelope Ragotzy
