★★★★★Darlene KoranMe and my grandchildren loved it so much my daughter purchased season tickets
★★★★★Beach TeacherOur school had a fabulous time at The Cat in the Hat! We were greeted and the process of finding our seats was seamless. The theater is gorgeous with great care given to maintaining its originality from 1928.
★Simone EdMy son attended classes last year and loved it. This year was a disaster. His new teacher Shelby showed discrimination towards my child. He was forced to sit on the floor while all of the other kids got to participate in being a character. That is the whole reason he is there, to act out a character, not sit and watch others. Shelby never communicated with my son as to why he was being left out. He was in tears telling me what happened. When approached she blatantly lied. I was promised a refund and never received it. Be cautious about this place.
★★★★★Jennifer DrummWe love TCT! My 6 year old has attended several performances and is currently enrolled in Musical Medley class. He loves learning to dance and sing every week!
★★★★★Sarah PetraccoWe were thoroughly impressed with the Children's Theater's production of Beauty and the Beast. We loved singing along with all of our favorite songs while watching the story unfold among an eye-catching backdrop. We also thought the length of the show was the perfect amount to keep our little ones engaged and entertained. Well done to the cast and crew!
