Come early for trick-or-treating and our Musical Instrument "Petting Zoo"
Starting one hour before the concert, visit the Atrium for trick-or-treating. In a special Haunted Hall edition of our Musical Instrument “Petting Zoo,” hands-on activities let children get up close with the instruments they'll see played on the stage with a “spooktacular” twist!

Oct. 29 at 2 p.m. is a sensory-friendly performance.
Sensory-friendly performances are designed to create a performing arts experience that is welcoming to all families, including those with children with autism or other sensory sensitivities.

Stay after the 4 p.m. performance on Oct. 29 for a free Kids’ Chat!
