New York City Children’s Theater – Shows and More!

October 22, 2020 by Denise Courter

 

Have you heard the news? The New York Children’s Theatre has launched its 2020-2021 season with new, live, virtual programs for children. The season includes a mix of live digital productions as well as filmed performances of NYCCT productions. Highlights include a filmed production of their annual holiday show My First Nutcracker as well as an exclusive two-week stream of their award-winning and critically acclaimed musical, A Band of Angels, directed by Colman Domingo and two new productions. We are highlighting the shows for 2020 and will be writing more about 2021 towards the end of the year. For now, take a look at some of their great offerings and support this incredible theatre. 

2020  Productions

The Forest of Feelings is a magical place filled with a vast landscape of emotions. When two friends discover a lost laugh, with the audience’s help, they must take a physical and musical journey through the forest to return it to its faraway home.

A Band Of Angels 

Streaming November 2020 

50 Minutes | Best for ages 8 and up Available on NYCCT’s Website with Live Special Events 

Join us this November for a special presentation of one of our most groundbreaking shows, A Band of Angels. Ella is a pop culture obsessed teenager living in present-day New York City. One afternoon she is transported back in time to meet the Jubilee Singers, a choir still in operation today that was founded shortly after the Civil War at one of the first schools for free slaves, and gains a new appreciation for history and education. See the production that Mommy Poppins called “captivating and thought-provoking,” written by Myla Churchill and directed by actor Colman Domingo. 

My First Nutcracker 

December 2020 

50 Minutes | Best for ages 3-8 Available on NYCCT’s Website with Live Special Events 

This holiday season, NYCCT will present My First Nutcracker filmed live at Theatre Row, and streamed directly into your home with live special events! In My First Nutcracker, join Clara and the Prince as they travel to a magical kingdom filled with delicious treats, dancing flowers, and a pesky mouse king. My First Nutcracker is an introduction to the classic holiday story you know and love, directed and choreographed by Melissa Riker and written by Barbara Zinn Krieger.

NYC city kids...(scratch that) NYC tweens have tak NYC city kids...(scratch that) NYC tweens have taken over Florida and we couldn’t be happier. Now I understand why they call Miami/FL “NY South”. We have been lucky to catch up with sooo many of our school families and friends. 

Grateful that our kids (and parents) get this socialization after a year of remote learning. 

Friends are the best gift ever. Memories of a lifetime. Grateful that we had the best weather, so many outdoor activities and expert mask-wearers.
