of people.

We hope that your family feels empow-ered to make HTY a part of your lives. We have more plays than ever before, expanded flexibility (you can pick your dates as you go!) and huge discounts off our regular prices (up to 25%).

The greatest benefit is that your family will laugh, learn and spend quality time together enjoying world premiere professional theatre made especially

for you.
