In partnership with the National Children’s Theatre, Studio will host three Childcare Matinee performances during our 2026-2027 season.
For ages 3-5: Experienced Teaching Artists guide participants through creative play exercises, a story drama activity, and an art project – all while guardians enjoy the performance. Participants will receive a nut-free snack. Children must be potty-trained and able to use the bathroom independently. Limited to 12 participants.
For ages 6-12: Participants learn about performance and design fundamentals through engaging theatre games, collaborate with friends on improvised and/or scripted scenes, and create a theatrical design project – all while guardians enjoy the performance. Participants will receive a nut-free snack. Limited to 20 participants.
