The curtain opens as the lights dim and the audience sits back in their seats in anticipation of what's to come. The stage is set for the young actors to dazzle the audience with stories that have been delighting generations. School plays and musicals provide a fantastic opportunity for children to explore the arts, especially if they know the performers. They can interact with diverse ideas or feel solidarity in shared emotions. A night at the theatre may introduce them to a story so enthralling it inspires them to learn.
