Aurora Theatre has assembled the best children's performers in the region, bringing them to Gwinnett County in order to give parents and their children a chance to experience their artistry in our amazing facility in downtown Lawrenceville. We feature puppeteers, magicians, storytellers, jugglers and musicians as a part of this series intended for youngsters to have their first theatrical experiences. At about 45 minutes in length, perfect for the young attention span, these lively performances are fun for the whole family.
As the weather cools and children are firmly back at school, parents are looking for more indoor activities for the family. That is where Aurora Children's Playhouse comes in. We begin with an act new to The Playhouse, Jack and the Beanstalk presented by David Stephens and All Hands Productions. A regular at the Center for Puppetry Arts and a veteran of several children's television programs, David takes a different look at the tale of Jack and his encounters with some magic beans, a beanstalk, a giant and some other fairytale favorites on October 17.On October 24, Drumming Up the Stories brings world folk tales to life through drumming, song, and audience participation. Performer, Dave Holland has traveled to Cuba, Africa, and Brazil to share with audiences how the drum was first used to communicate and how music can enhance storytelling.10/17/09 10 AM
