How old should a child be to enjoy a Childrens Theatre play?
The Children’s Theatre is very proud to entertain even the smallest theatre-goers. Many area children have attended their first real play at one of our shows. Most children age four and up will have a blast at our shows. If your child is younger, attendance may still be a good bet; just be sure he or she can sit relatively still for 45 minutes to an hour, without the distraction of food (food and drink are prohibited in the Thomas Jefferson Community Theatre, although patrons can enjoy concessions in the lobby before the show and at intermission). Many younger children are transfixed by the experience of seeing child actors at work. We do ask that crying or talkative children be removed to the lobby during shows as a courtesy to the other patrons.
