we took our kids to the theater...

This weekend we took 5 of our 6 kids (ages 4 ½ to just about 10) to see Theatreworks USA’s performance of “Click, Clack, Moo” – based on the book of the same name.

Theatreworks creatively expanded the short story into an hour long musical – the perfect length for young kids. It was the best children’s theater performance we have seen in the past 10 years of taking our kids to children’s productions. We were both blown away by the quality of the actors’ performances, the sets, the script and the music.

The songs were so catchy and the lyrics were incredibly creative, topical and hilarious. Our 4 ½ years olds laughed and clapped the entire time and our just about 10 year olds gave it a 4 ½ out of 5 stars (pretty solid since they were really only coming to accompany their younger brothers).

The show was performed at Hunter College -- a great theater for kids because it has stadium style seating (so we did not have to pile up all our coats under Dov and Jack’s bums). As soon as the performance was over we were investigating what other Theatreworks USA performances we could take the kids to. 

The back of the playbill listed the following…
