Although it was not originally planned to conduct acting training at the Barrow Group, now the school’s educational activities are equally important for the team in relation to the work of the theater [5] . The group began to offer master classes in 1990 after several dozen professional (that is, adults!) Actors asked for training inspired by the work of the theater troupe [6] . A few years later, Anne Hathaway was accepted into the school, who became the first and only at that time teenager studying at The Barrow Group [7] . Now the school has children's (7–9 years old), teenage (10–13 years old), youthful (14-17 years old) and adult programs. The total number of students in a year who have received a particular education at school reaches 4200.
The work of the Barrow Group has won many awards. Among them are the Drama Desk Award , the Lucille Lortel Awards, and the Off-Broadway Theater Awards, Obie Award [8] . Among the students appear [9] :
- Ann Hataway
