A Lifetime of learning

through the performing arts

The Zeiterion offers a variety of touchpoints using the lens of the performing arts to expand the hearts and minds of all ages.

Pre-K to 12 Performances

The Schooltime Performance Series brings classroom lessons to life! Each live show aligns with Massachusetts curriculum standards and enhances learning for the greater SouthCoast region students—making your visit to the theater an inspiring extension of the classroom.
