Theater Educational Resources

 

The Toolkits below were constructed for the American Repertory Theater. Each Toolkit contains background on the production, profiles on artists, a deep dive into the social context of the work, and educational resources/curricula for teachers to utilize in the classroom. Mr. Montaño was responsible for designing, editing, sourcing articles, writing articles, and creating curriculum for each of these.
