Stages Theatre Company will present their newest Theatre for the Very Young production of DOWN ON THE FARM: A LIFT-THE-FLAP OUTDOOR ADVENTURE. In this unique and interactive outdoor experience, their youngest patrons and their caregivers look under the flap and see inside the farm. Based on the concept of lift-the-flap picture books, this Theatre for the Very Young outdoor performance is sure to delight their youngest audience members (ages 0-5). Is that a cow under there? Or a chicken? Maybe this time it's a pig or a barn full of hay. Journey DOWN ON THE FARM in this imaginative outdoor adventure at Stages Theatre Company. This Theatre for the Very Young production is directed by Melanie Salmon-Peterson and written by Katharine Benyo with music by Matt Ouren.
"We seek to create a theatrical experience that meets the young person where they are right now, engaging them in activities that celebrate their unique way of interacting the with the world around them," said Salmon-Peterson.
