The critically acclaimed Occidental Children's Theater will celebrated over 25 years in the Bowl with a seven-week outdoor run. Located in the Remsen Bird Hillside Theater on the Occidental campus. In about an hour, ​our fearless cast of six performed four energetic and funny stories without props, sets or special costumes, relying only on their acting and acrobatic skills. We know our title story will be as fun and creative as usual and our three folk tales from around the world will entertain you all!

“The cast carries it off with the unflagging charm that has made this reliable company one of the Southland's – and the summer's – most entertaining children's theater offerings"
