In 1972, Theatre of Youth (TOY) was founded with the ambitious goal of giving the children of Western New York a theatre of excellence. In those years since, TOY has given over a half million children the very personal experience of watching deeply meaningful stories come to life. During its lifetime, TOY has told these stories in many spaces, but none as beautiful or awe-inspiring as its current residence at the historic Allendale Theatre. Right now, inside the Allendale, the staff of TOY are busy at work preparing for an amazing celebration in honor of a wonderful 40 years!
The season begins when TOY rolls out the PINK carpet on Friday, September 16, 2011 for Curtain Up! - Buffalo's nationally recognized event celebrating the official opening of the theatre season. While theatres across Western New York are holding black-tie events, TOY is inviting children and their families to attend a one night only pink-tie event surrounding TOY's opening performance of PINKALICIOUS: THE MUSICAL. Pinkalicious is the critically acclaimed literary and musical sensation about a girl who eats too many pink cupcakes and turns pink! TOY will be putting on the biggest main stage event we've ever had with pink champagne for the adults, pink lemonade for the kids, pink cupcakes and pastries, a glamorous pink carpet, the Allendale lobby dressed all in pink, the most imaginatively designed pink set on stage, photo opportunities with Pinkalicious actors, and more... it is going to be PINKTASTIC!!! Parents, boys, and girls of all ages; come out dressed in pink for a night of theatre you will never forget!
For the holidays, bring the whole family to TOY when we visit Room One with JUNIE B. JONES IN JINGLE BELLS, BATMAN SMELLS. When she draws Tattletale May for her secret Santa, zany but sensitive Junie B. must learn yet another important lesson about friendship and sharing.
After ringing in the New Year, TOY will delve into American history to tell the story of a young boy, a nation's founding father, and their daring attempt to control the power of lightning in BEN FRANKLIN'S APPRENTICE.
Come late March, TOY's next adventure will similarly begin on a "dark and stormy night" with A WRINKLE IN TIME. In this very theatrical performance, TOY follows Meg and her brother Charles Wallace as they embark on an impossible mission to rescue their father through space and time.
Finally, TOY will end its 40th Anniversary Season with the family favorite CHARLOTTE'S WEB, a classic story for all ages about the value of an unlikely friendship.
