1. “GOLDILOCKS & THE THREE BEARS”
Our monthly RI series, continues this month with our production of “Goldilocks & the Three Bears.” Come with us on a delightful romp through the traditional tale of Goldilocks, but be prepared for a new twist at the end. Did you ever wonder what happened after Goldilocks ran all the way home? Well, we answer that question in a fresh and fun way and teach some lessons about proper manners, too. This is a show you just can't 'bear' to miss!
Join us for the show this coming Saturday, April 16th at the Scottish Rite Auditorium (2115 Broad St., Cranston, RI). Tickets, which are $10 in advance for stadium seats and $8 in advance for floor seats, can be purchased by calling (401) 942-3637.
Our monthly series will shift in May for a special Friday evening performance of our fundraiser “Alice Through the Kaleidoscope.” We hope you can join us!

3. ANNUAL FUNDRAISER
Kaleidoscope is proud to present our 2nd annual fundraiser performance of “Alice Through the Kaleidoscope.” This family friendly event will be held Friday, May 13th at the Scottish Rite Auditorium. Show time is 7:30pm and all proceeds from the event will go to our anti-bullying program.
Come join your favorite fairytale characters in an original story line... The Fairy Godmother is missing and without her magic all of Fairytale Land is in chaos. No one’s story is following the path that it should and it seems that Happily Ever After may be a thing of the past. Even Alice (of Wonderland) has not ended up where she is supposed to be. Now she must team up with the Big (not so) Bad Wolf to find the Fairy Godmother and put everything right.
Join us for an evening of all of your favorite Kaleidoscope Theatre songs and characters in a brand new original story for the whole family to enjoy and support a wonderful cause. All proceeds will go toward bringing our award-winning BU.L.L.Y. presentation to area schools around the Rhode Island and Massachusetts area that could otherwise not afford the program.
For more information or to purchase tickets to this event, please call us at (401) 942-3637!
