Our Impact
Testimonials
I absolutely LOVE this event! I like the variety of activities, the music, the roving artists, the general atmosphere, everything! I also love the shows — the variety of options is fantastic. Now I tell all my friends they have to go too!
The festival represents an attitude toward children’s theatre, a recognition that it is just as important as any form of theatre. They understand that just because they have a knee-high audience, it doesn’t mean you condescend to them, or give them anything less than artistic excellence.
The performance was amazing! So many happy and unforgettable memory-making experiences…we’re inspired to keep tapping into our creativity. The Festival gets better and better every year!
