FAMILY FESTIVAL SERIES

Some of the best experiences you can share with your children are live performances. Imagine the looks on their faces when they see the light circus of Luma, the awe-inspiring acrobatics of Cirque Eloize and Musafir, or the thunderous drums of Taikoza. Or perhaps you have an aspiring musician or dancer. Let them see what it's like to put years of dedication and passion into something they love. And you know they would be talking about it for days and remembering it for years to come. Whether your child is six, 12 or 17, we have performances that the entire family can enjoy. And with discounted youth tickets and the flexible and affordable subscription, you'll be able to find the right package with your family's budget and busy schedule in mind. Remember to bring the grandparents. Seniors receive a 10% discount on single ticket orders.

Would you like to know more about the event so that you can prepare your child ahead of time? Go on-line to our web site at www.fineartscenter.com and check out our on-line newsletter, playbill and press room for more detailed information and, when available, the web sites of the artists you're interested in. For tips on taking your children to the theater, especially for the first time, go to www.fineartscenter.com/centerseries and get great advice from the e ditors at FamilyFun Magazine.

We have noted a few events below as a guide as to what might be appropriate for certain ages based on the type of event. Of course, you know your children best and there may be other events that you would like them to experience based on their particular interest. You are certainly welcome to bring your family to any of our events. For Center Series weeknight performances, the curtain is at 7:30 for those early bedtimes.
