THEATRE FOR YOUNG AUDIENCES

Book a Field Trip to the Fallon Theatre!

Plays on School Days is a field trip opportunity that provides students with an entertaining and educating live theatre experience. For just $5 a ticket, over 9,000 local elementary school students and educators have enjoyed theatrical adaptations of popular books for young audiences.

For the 2026-2027 season, we are proud to present Me…Jane: The Dreams & Adventures of Young Jane Goodall; adapted from the childrens book by Patrick McDonnell.

Enjoy a Night of Theatre and Support Local Schools!

Don’t miss Share Night – a special theatre event where your ticket purchase makes a difference! Enjoy a fantastic performance while directly contributing to local schools!

In past years we have raised money for local elementary schools through ticket sales of this program. To date, over $16,000 has been raised for Leon County Schools. This exciting fundraising “Share Night” opportunity for schools is a family-friendly event!

How it Works:

Share Night tickets are $15 for adults and $10 for children. Anyone who comes to the theatre during a Share Night, and requests the Share Night tickets, may purchase as many available tickets as they like. $5 of each Share Night ticket will be donated back to the assigned school!

If your school is interested in participating in one of the Share Night performances, please contact the Community Engagement Office at 644-1377 for more information or see the reservation form below.
