Looking for something fun, live and inexpensive to take your young child to on a Saturday? Come be a part of the new and exciting Saturday’s Kids, Theater for Children to be held on Saturday, Sept. 23, at the Newhall Family Theatre for the Performing Arts, located at 24607 Walnut Ave in downtown Newhall.

Ideal for young school-aged children T-K and older, Saturday’s Kids was created as an exciting adventure into storyland. Filled with crazy antics and colorful props, Saturday’s Kids programming seeks to further encourage imagination and creativity in kids.

This first presentation of Saturday’ Kids is directed by Donna M. Manfredi and consists of two short silly plays performed by adults, followed by a 15 minute craft activity related to the plays’ themes. Total time is 1 hour—so manageable for young children’s introduction to live theater. Come see the zany Fractured Fairytales and Stone Soup, performed live at 11 a.m. or 2 p.m. Doors will open 30 minutes prior to showtime. Tickets are only $5 child/adult and can be reserved through Eventbrite at https://SaturdaysKidsatNewhallFamilyTheatre.eventbrite.com.

Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

“Raising the Curtain Foundation is excited to bring Saturday’s Kids to the children of the Santa Clarita Valley,” said Kim Pearlman, president of Raising the Curtain Foundation. “We are honored to be able to offer a theater experience at the Newhall Family Theatre, specifically for young children, with the intention of sparking their creativity and love for theater.
