Stay Awake is Birmingham Children’s Theatre’s next installment of Theatre for Very Young Audiences (TVYA), where children ages 0 – 5 are able to explore the world around them through the magic of live theatre. Through repetition, rhyme, song, and a lot of audience interaction, this show invites young kids to not just watch but experience creative storytelling. This show is great for kinesthetic learners who use movement, testing, trial and error in a non-traditional learning to retain and recall information. The space is fully interactive, and the kids have agency in the space to play, learn, and participate in the story at their own pace.
