Since 2002, TIGER (Theater Integrating Guidance Education and Responsibility) has produced 2,500 shows, hosted 3,000 student workshops, and visited over 500 schools throughout New England with many different casts. For scores of NH schools, TIGER has been a lynchpin of social-emotional learning for elementary and secondary students. In this podcast, we chat with Dr. Trish Lindberg and Pam Irish, the two most responsible for this strongly successful program.
