We understand the concerns you face in making decisions that will enhance your classroom instruction and give your students opportunities to expand their horizons and imaginations. On that note, we wish to share a brief excerpt that further articulates the value of the arts in a global community, where solutions will be found through creativity, ingenuity and imagination. “In times of economic difficulty, the arts, rather than languishing as a discretionary luxury, become more vital to the human condition. Through the arts, we honor our past, celebrate our present and dream of our future. The very best of who we are is inherent in the arts and at the core of the continual reinvigoration of our humanity.” Jo Ann Fallette, Treasuring The Arts In Troubled Times.

We are here to work with you so that you may enjoy the facilities and programming that Proctors and Capital Repertory Theatre have to offer. Please contact us at any time to discuss the many opportunities available.

Want to learn more? Join us on October 18 for Educator Extravaganza – an evening just for you, complete with workshops, refreshments and more. Treat yourself to an enjoyable occasion while becoming informed about Proctors education programs and sharing your own insights and experiences with teaching professionals like yourself.

The challenges of the 21st century classroom are numerous and complicated. Engaging students, making complex concepts & ideas seem relevant and interesting, are just some of the challenges facing the modern teacher. Proctors believes that the arts have a great opportunity to aid teachers beyond the limits of the theatre and stage, and reach deep within the classroom. As a result, we have partnered with area high schools to address some of these needs in the MediaWorks program. Through MediaWorks, we work directly with teachers to develop a new approach to curriculum, integrating the media arts into Common Core standards to teach students across educational backgrounds & abilities. The program provides an opportunity for:

Offered on Thursdays and Saturdays, the Open Eye Training Institute classes provide an opportunity for students of any age to learn the skills necessary for television production. Learn new techniques, or advance your skills in one or more classes taught by digital media professionals. For teachers interested in Professional Development, we can custom design workshops as needed. Contact us for information.

Proctors believes that if we can teach our community and its students how to use the tools of communication, we can create better lifelong and late-in-life learners. By doing so, we create an informed, connected community that can better communicate and defend ideas and opinions without anger, violence or misunderstanding. Freely communicative communities are healthier and foster economic and cultural developments—making for diverse and sustainable communities. Proctors’ approach to doing this is the Open Eye project.

The Open Eye project is comprised of the following programs, which address issues relevant to different generations of the community, equipping them with the tools necessary to effectively communicate.

Times change so quickly, and with that change comes new technology and new forms of communication. Proctors is utilizing media as an outlet for creativity and storytelling. With the After School Media program, middle school students are invited to explore the exciting world of the media arts; create television shows, short films, interviews with local leaders, animation clips, and much more! This after school program is available to all students in grades 6-8 in the Capital Region! In conjunction with Open Stage Media, this program runs throughout the school year for 2 sessions, Fall & Spring, providing awesome opportunities for creativity & collaboration.

John Logan’s sizzling play ignites the worlds of art and commerce. Mark Rothko, the misanthropic abstract-expressionist painter, confronts his decision to accept a lucrative commercial commission. Extolling the virtues of his art as “expressing the big emotions – tragedy, ecstasy, and doom,” Rothko drills his new assistant on the dangers of selling out. As they work together, the roles of student and teacher reverse, forcing Rothko to face reality and his ultimate place in the pantheon of great artists. Winner of Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Play and 6 Tony Awards®, including Best Play 2010. Recommended for grades 9-12.

Statistically, children who engage in arts programs outperform others in the world of academics. Even more importantly, they have fun! Ask anyone to name a favorite memory of a school day and most will remember a special field trip.

Thank you for giving the gift of an art-filled life to a child!
