Regardless of what venue you go to, theatre is a great activity for kids because they'll delight in the colors, sounds, sights, and spectacles. They might even develop a love of theatre and the arts that will last a lifetime. Plus, whether you're on a family vacation to New York or live here, you have to check out theatre with your family — it's one of New York's most famous attractions.
