From classroom interactions to issues backstage, it can be hard to know who to talk to sometimes. These Pathways of Support offer guidance across the many types of spaces that make up our Illinois Theatre community: classrooms, production shops, rehearsal rooms, and performance spaces. Using the dropdown menu, find the space that most closely corresponds with your situation and follow the pathway that works best for you.
