The Renaissance Theatre will host the second of its three Teddy Bear Concerts in the 2017-2018 Mechanics Bank Education Series on Sunday, January 14 at 2:30 PM. The performance features an original script by Michael Thomas of the story “Pinocchio,” performed by Renaissance Theatre actors Maddie Beer and Colton Penwell and the Mansfield Symphony Brass Trio.
Teddy Bear concerts take place on the stage of the Renaissance Theatre with audience members sitting on the stage alongside the performers. Geared to children ages 2 through 10, each Teddy Bear concert offers an interactive element as well as a relaxed environment. Small audience sizes, lights up, and low sound levels as well as safe sensory-spaces allow audience members with autism to be accommodated at this performance.
Tickets are just $5 each and are on sale at the Renaissance Box Office, via phone at (419)522-2726, and online at MansfieldTickets.com. This performance has limited tickets available. Additional support for the Teddy Bear concerts comes from Sharon Granter and the Ohio Arts Council.
