Stay Awake
by Mary Hall Surface
Directed by Mason Elizabeth Greer
What happens when bedtime becomes an adventure? Stay Awake invites children ages 0–5 to follow a child and her dog on a fantastical journey through Dreamland where their nightly routine is thrown delightfully off-balance. BCT's Theatre for the Very Young (TVY) shows weave music, movement, puppetry, and visual art together to explore shapes, sounds, numbers, and more. With built-in repetition, rhyme, and generous audience interaction, this enchanting production is designed to spark curiosity and delight in even the youngest learners.

Great for our very youngest theatre-goers, shows in the PlaySpace focus on the fundamentals of early childhood development while providing an engaging and entertaining story. These shows are always interactive featuring music, movement, rhyme, repetition, and other building blocks of learning. The PlaySpace is an open area “Yes Space” where children and their grown-ups are encouraged to roam, make noise, touch things, and get the wiggles out; and the performances are always relaxed, gentle, and sensory-friendly.
Recommended for ages 0-5 years. Approximate performance time: 35-45 minutes.
