Lexington Children's Theatre -- Educational Touring Troupe
Lexington Children’s Theatre has been professionally touring Kentucky and beyond since 1974. The tour company travels with one primary and one intermediate production package in the fall and spring to provide age appropriate and engaging art for all elementary and middle school students.
The company performs one to three shows a day and over 200 shows a season. Each production is less than 60 minutes in length. We also require a 60-minute window to set up and teardown. Although the company performs primarily in school gyms and auditoriums, they also travel to several libraries and performing arts centers.
In addition to productions, the company can facilitate theatre workshops and classes, and each touring performance comes with a 15-minute talkback. We provide a play guide that includes activities for students and families to do before and/or after the show! Comprehensive play guides include a play synopsis and pre- and post-show activities, all designed to assist in achieving the Kentucky Core Content (KCC) and to integrate the arts with your core curricular subjects.
We are more than happy to provide venues with a promotional package which includes the show synopsis, press release, logo, promo photos, poster and educational play guide. We are also more than happy to work one-on-one with a venue and brainstorm ideas based on their marketing needs.
