Goat in the Schools is GRP's youth theatre show, and the only touring production in New Orleans that features student-written plays performed by professional actors. Each year, GRP chooses four plays written by middle school students in the Play/Write program, stages them with professional actors and designers, and then brings them to local schools (2,000+ students).
The 2024 - 25 school year is GRP’s eighth year bringing Goat in the Schools to New Orleans students!
