LCT's School Matinees allow your students to experience the magic of live, professional theatre. Performances take place at our Main Stage theatre located in downtown Lexington. We have shows available throughout the school year for a variety of grade levels and interests! All school matinees include a post-show Q&A and access to our Educational Play Guide for the production.
