Betty Oliphant Theatre — Theatre

My daughter recently participated in the Theatre program at the Betty Oliphant Theatre in Toronto, and she had a solid experience. The class was small, which meant more individualized attention from the instructor, Lucy, who was wonderfully engaging. My daughter got to work on a mini play where she created her own character, which was right up her alley as she's quite creative. We had some issues with long lines during pickup, though, which made it a bit chaotic at times. But overall, I appreciate the supportive environment, especially for her since she's a bit shy. The weekly schedule fits nicely into our routine, and despite the minor annoyance, I would recommend this program for other kids interested in theatre. It’s a great way for them to feel more confident and express themselves.

My daughter, who is outgoing and loves to perform, recently attended a weekly theatre program at the Betty Oliphant Theatre in Toronto. The instructor, Sarah, really connected with the kids and encouraged them to express themselves freely. My daughter particularly enjoyed creating her own short skit, which allowed her to showcase her creativity. The small group size made it easier for her to engage, and she made a new friend during the process. However, I found the pickup process a bit frustrating, as there were long lines at the end of each session. Overall, I feel positive about the experience and would recommend it for kids who love drama and creativity, just be prepared for a bit of a wait at pickup.
