Red Branch Theatre has an interesting twist with some of its performances. Its plays offer not only a performance but an event around them. For example, the production of "Pinocchio" offered parents a chance to leave the kids at the show and shop for the holidays. The "Shop Til You Drop" PJ Party included a show, games and crafts for kids allowing parents time to holiday shop. Ingenious. In 2013, similar events are planned for March 22 – 24 – A Weekend of Children's Theater Fun, Parents' Night out PJ Party, and again next December with another Shop Til You Drop PJ Party and Performance. It's a wonderful way to introduce children to theater in a fun, non-formal environment.
"Pinocchio" runs through December 16 at the Drama Learning Center in Columbia and you can find out more at www.redbranchtheatrecompany.com. The Company has been operating since 2008 in the Baltimore/Washington corridor.
