  2. 2.Arrive 15-20 minutes early to find parking on 2nd Avenue and let kids use the restroom before the show starts.
  3. 3.Bring a light sweater or jacket as theaters can be cool, and consider packing a small, quiet snack for younger children during longer productions.
  4. 4.Ask about youth theater workshops and summer programs if your child shows interest in performing arts.
