Age for Stage — Theatre

We recently enrolled my son in the Age for Stage theatre program in Brooklyn, and he couldn't be happier. The program runs weekly, and the instructors, like Sarah, are genuinely engaging and help foster creativity among the kids. My son worked on creating a short skit with his peers, which was a delight to witness during the showcase at the end of the session. He even made a new friend in the process! However, I found the drop-off in the busy lobby to be a bit chaotic, with many parents gathering and making it difficult to navigate. Still, once we got inside, it felt welcoming and well-organized. Overall, I’d recommend this program for kids who are outgoing and love to express themselves. The small group size allowed for personalized attention, which is a significant plus.

We recently enrolled my 9-year-old daughter in the Age for Stage Theatre program in Brooklyn, and overall, it was a positive experience. The instructors, particularly a lovely lady named Emily, were very engaging and made the classes fun while encouraging the kids to express their creativity. My daughter created a short skit with her group, which was a highlight for her. She also made a new friend, which was great since she's a bit shy. One small annoyance was the long lines during pickup, which felt chaotic at times. However, seeing her enthusiasm and confidence grow made it worth it. The program runs weekly, and at around $40, I feel it's a good value for the creative experiences offered. I would recommend it, especially for kids who might be a bit shy but are interested in the arts.
