In addition to classroom and production learning, theater students participate in a number of excursions to professional theaters, including the Actors Gang, South Coast Repertory Theatre, A Noise Within, Pasadena Playhouse, Fountain Theater, and many other theaters in the region. Through relationships built with several companies, students have the opportunity to talk with the actors and directors following the shows, gaining first-hand insight into the business and craft of acting. Students of the Besant Hill School theater program are also eligible as interns for the prestigious Ojai Playwrights Conference (OPC), held each year here on campus in the school’s modern facility, the Zalk Theater.
