Backstage Tours
Give your students the opportunity to see what happens “behind the curtain.” Tours of Quincy Community Theatre, located within the Oakley-Lindsay Center in downtown Quincy, are available for school, community or private groups. In the tour, students will learn that more is needed to put on a show than just the actors; theatre is a collaborative art form!
Tours: $3/person
A workshop can be added to the tour for an additional fee.
Student Previews
Each school year, QCT offers special showings of our Fall Student Theatre Play and Winter Student Theatre Musical for school groups. Tickets are only $3 per person; attendance is determined through a lottery system.
