Programs
Our programs celebrate young
people and the live experience. Through education and the medium of
live performance we encourage young audiences to develop an appreciation
for theater while exploring its vast ability to connect communities,
disciplines and art forms.

Kids
Night on Broadway (KNOB) is a national initiative sponsored by the
League of American Theaters and Producers and is in partnership with the
Fabulous Fox Theatre. On this special day we offer adults the
opportunity to purchase a ticket and receive a child's admission free to
a wonderful performance at The Fabulous Fox Theatre. Area restaurants
show their support by offering free child's entrees with the purchase of
an adult entree. The performance is kicked off by a huge KIDS party in
the Fox Theater lobby prior to the show.
KIDS NIGHT ON BROADWAY is truly one of the most magnificent
annual celebrations of theater and young audiences in St. Louis.

Fox
Associates Charitable Foundation granted tickets to the award winning
Disney production of THE LION KING. The recipients were educational
programs across the Saint Louis region. An extensive activity guide was
distributed t0 educators to use with their students to enhance the
educational impact of the LION KING. Participants received a Broadway
cast recording of THE LION KING, show lyrics and a study of African
animals from the St. Louis Zoo.

to spur additional research.
