looking for a weekly space for your child to interact with other children for socialization? We would love to offer you that opportunity in a safe environment full of imagination and play. Come spend some time at Black Box Theatre for some creative play. The time spent there will include story time, a craft, group play, music time, independent play, and snack time.
Each week we will discover and explore our theme. Some examples will be Teddy Bear Tea Party, Down on the Farm, Dinosaurs Dig, Bozo Time, and so much more.
Not only will they have fun learning and playing, but they will be introduced to the beginning of theatre by acting and singing on a Black Box stage.

When an uber-organized mother and her spontaneous teenage daughter magically swap bodies, they have just one day to put things right again. Freaky Friday, a musical based on the celebrated novel by Mary Rodgers and the hit Disney films, is a heartfelt, comedic, and unexpectedly emotional update on an American classic. By spending a day in each other's shoes, Katherine and Ellie come to appreciate one another's struggles, learn self-acceptance, and realize the immeasurable love and mutual respect that bond a mother and daughter.

***A flex character can be played by any gender. Young Anna, Middle Anna, and Anna
Young Anna, Middle Anna, and Anna are all the young Princess of Arendelle at different ages. Filled with a tremendous amount of light, energy, and love, Anna is a hopelessly optimistic extrovert at all ages, but as she grows older, she longs to connect with others, especially her sister, Elsa. Young Elsa, Middle Elsa, and Elsa
Young Elsa, Middle Elsa, and Elsa are all the eldest Princess of Arendelle at different ages. Next in line for the throne, Elsa was born with magical powers that can overwhelm her and harm others if not handled with care. Fearful of hurting anyone, especially her beloved sister, Anna, Elsa becomes anxious and withdrawn as she grows older, before eventually growing confident and learning to wield her powers. King Agnarr
The warm-hearted ruler of Arendelle is committed to protecting both his family and the Townspeople from his eldest daughter's powers. Queen Iduna
The queen possesses a sense of rightness and kindness that guides her in her protection of her two young girls. A daughter of the Northern Nomads, this queen has the ability to communicate with the Hidden Folk of the mountains. Pabbie (Flex) and Bulda (Flex)
Pabbie and Bulda are the mystical leaders of the Hidden Folk who have a soft spot for "strays." Ever-benevolent, these parental figures want what's best for Kristoff, even if they are a bit misguided in their efforts. The Bishop (Flex)
The bishop officiates the coronation and passing of the crown to Elsa. Kristoff
Kristoff is a hardworking ice harvester. Kristoff has a sarcastic veneer and a rough-around-the-edges exterior that hides a big heart. Taken in by the Hidden Folk when he was young, he loves Pabbie and Bulda dearly, but is a bit of a loner with a reindeer for a best friend - until he meets Anna. Sven (Flex)
Sven is a reindeer of few words, a fiercely loyal pal to Kristoff, and loves giving the ice harvester a hard time. Hans
The ambitious Prince of the Southern Isles and overlooked thirteenth son of a king. Hans constantly strives to find a way to make good and stand out. He boasts an exceedingly charming facade that fools everyone – including Anna and the citizens of Arendelle – into believing he's Prince Charming, when really, he's just a jerk. Weselton
A visiting duke who possesses a huge inferiority complex. A bombastic, overbearing sycophant, Weselton's sole purpose is to hobnob with influencers and royalty Olaf (Flex)
The magical snowman created by Anna and Elsa when they were young. Goofy and sweet, Olaf is endearingly delighted by everything - especially the idea of summer. Oaken (Flex)
An exceedingly cheerful and convivial wandering salesperson and ardent devotee to all things cozy and comfortable. Featured Soloists (Flex)
Includes the following roles: Townspeople, Hidden Folk, Castle Staff, Housekeeper, Butler, Handmaiden, Cook, Steward, Guards, Summer Chorus, Oaken's Family.SHOW DESCRIPTION
