Imagination Series

Art is FUN! But it can also be an incredible teaching tool. The Imagination Series is a family-friendly series that mixes traditional storytelling stage shows with STEM-related learning opportunities. Professional troupes bring their fun, interactive shows to the John H. Williams stage to provide laughter, learning and more. We’ve had everything from pirates to hip hop, and each show even has its own study guide to learn more before and after the show! These one-hour shows open new doors for children by introducing the performing arts to new generations. Daytime performances are perfect for school groups while evening performances are designed with family and friends in mind.
