'HAVE A SEAT' PROGRAM
Have a SEAT (Student / Engagement / Access / Theater), formerly No Seats Empty, is a grant-funded arts-in-education initiative that makes theater accessible to all students by providing free tickets and transportation to under-resourced schools attending student matinee performances, as well as offering them the option to attend every pre-show workshop at Two River Theater for free. Depending on the performance, qualifying schools are eligible to receive up to either 30 or 50 free tickets per school. Additional tickets can be purchased at student matinee ticket prices, if available.

- School is designated as a Priority or Focus School by the NJ Department of Education.
- NSLP Free and Reduced Lunch eligibility percentage of student population is higher than the NJ statewide average of 35.5%.
- Other extenuating inequities may be considered on an individual school basis. Schools that feel they may qualify based on these inequities are encouraged email us at stumats@trtc.org to discuss it further.
