One of the first theaters in the nation to offer low-cost performance tickets to school groups, A.C.T. has brought the power of live theater to hundreds of thousands of students and educators since our arrival in San Francisco in 1967.

From our special school-audience Student Matinee (SMAT) performances, Will on Wheels touring productions of Shakespearean classics, in-depth study guides, and customized ACTsmart workshops to our deeply discounted Educator Subscriptions, A.C.T. offers a rich array of opportunities to connect you to the art of the theater, helping you bring the power of "play" into your classrooms, your lives, and the hearts and minds of your students.

Educator Subscriptions

We know how hard teachers and school administrators work—sometimes you may want to enjoy a night at the theater on your own or with a family member or friend. You can order up to two half-price subscriptions per valid educator ID: four-play packages start as low as $12 per play, any day of the week. As an A.C.T. subscriber, you also enjoy a wide variety of perks, including free ticket exchanges, exclusive restaurant discounts, pre- and post-show events (wine tasting!) and discussions, and much more. Order now.
