Great experience for kids of elementary school age! Highly recommendable
Beautiful building with different spaces suitable for different events and activities. Good location, too.
FIVE STARS for The Very Hungry Caterpillar Show at the Imagination Stage in Bethesda, MD! Adults and children were captivated and loved the performances! Unfortunately, no photos allowed, so I'm sharing some photos of a kids park just TWO blocks away! Very helpful information for parents or grandparents who arrive a bit early or need time to stretch before the ride home!
My six year old went to see Frog and Toad and it was funny, entertaining and the acting/singing was superb! Only $9 per ticket. The theater does run cold as actors get sweaty on stage. The show did start about 5-6 min late and lasted an hour. Younger and older children were present and they all seem engaged. Definitely a must visit! I would even see it again!
