Live Theater Family Outing 2024

 

In partnership with Northwestern University’s ImagineU, ARTSiE purchased 39 discounted tickets for children and families to attend the theater production of The Wong Kids in the Secret of the Space Chupacabra, Go!. What fun for the children to see the show with their families and make connections given what they learned in the Wong Kids enrichment classes through Right at School at Washington Elementary and Family Focus in Evanston.

Thank you to our ARTSiE families who made an effort to take their children to see the lively performance of The Wong Kids. 🌌🚀

We took our son and his friend to see the show and they both had positive reviews. They both enjoyed the show, said it was funny and they liked the plot twist at the end. They were both very excited to meet the cast at the end of the show and even take a picture with them. Thanks again for setting this up!

It is such a joy for families to have a shared experience where they can talk about ideas and listen to each other. There is so much to experience in live theatre that can happen no place else. You are providing this opportunity through ARTSiE, and we are grateful to have Imagine U be part of your world.

The children really enjoyed the show, (especially the levitating rocks and the flying dragon) and the parents appreciated a chance to have such a meaningful outing with their child(ren). Just yesterday [in our Wong Kids class], insightful conversations about Valerie’s dual character, Nobody, were shared amongst the ARTSiE children. What revelations!
