There are plenty of opportunities see a play or musical here in the Springs, but I know that not many of us can or want to spend the hundreds of dollars that it can take to take our whole families. I wanted to highlight some of the smaller local production companies whose performances cost around $10 or less per person to attend. We’ve been to performances from several of these groups and while of course they’re not Broadway-quality, I and my kids have greatly enjoyed them!
If you’d like to take your children to the theater without spending a mint, here are some great local options:
