Children explore a production onstage

Parent Guides

Every Emerald City Theatre production explores a Gateway Theme. A Gateway Theme is a topic of conversation for Parents and their early learners. In the program of each show you will find a Parent Guide to help you and your early learner continue the conversation before and after (or maybe even during) the show.

While you will always find this material in the program at the show, you can also download the Parent Guides here!
