TADA! Youth Theater Announces Time-Inspired 32nd Season

The Drama Desk award-winning TADA! Youth Theater is celebrating its 32nd year of original musical productions for family audiences. The actors in these productions are all members of TADA!'s Resident Youth Ensemble who range in age from 8-18. Productions are appropriate for ages 3 plus and are enjoyable for the entire family.

This season's theme is "time." The shows travel to centuries past to a year as a "transplant" in NYC to a day in the life of a typical kid. It is about time for TADA! as well. Time that all New Yorker's know who TADA! is and all that is done for the families of NYC through musical theater. Just like Hamilton, we are all always running out of time - take the time to see original musicals created for families to enjoy!
