Imagine a professional theatre performance created just for children ages 3 - 6. What ingredients would it have? Endless possibility, adventure, mystery, music, a feast for the senses, and a few thrilling surprises!
William Shakespeare called his stage a “wooden O”–an empty space where the audience’s imagination helps the actors tell the story. Once kids ages 3-5 step into Brave Little Company’s Wooden O, they’ll be on an imaginative quest to help Robin Goodfellow, a prankster with a little magic up his sleeve. They’ll engage their senses of sight, hearing, touch, and smell as they follow Robin’s map to find a mysterious flower. Presented with modern text and music, Wooden O is an age-appropriate introduction to Will’s many worlds!
About Brave Little Company
Brave Little Company is Theatre for Everyone. We create and produce work about, with, and for all of Houston’s kids and their grown-ups. We reflect Houston’s diversity in the stories we tell and the artists who tell them, creating theatre the way kids play. In 2023, BLC received the TYA/USA National Award for Artistic Innovation.
Founded in 2013, we have four main areas of work: creating and producing work about, with, and for all of Houston's kids, with a focus on dual language work; THE BIG "US" PROJECT, a collaborative theatre initiative created by 100 members of Houston's refugee and immigrant communities; Wish You Were Here, a creative collaboration with students with disabilities; and teaching artist residencies serving the needs of students and teachers.
BLC has been on the Touring Roster of Texas Commission on the Arts since 2020 and is a Young Audiences of Houston arts partner. Learn more at www.brave-little.com.
