The Aristocats KIDS
Sept. 26 – Oct. 4, 2025
Based on the beloved Disney animated film, Disney’s The Aristocats KIDS is a heartwarming musical adventure filled with jazzy rhythms, lively characters, and non-stop feline fun. Set in the enchanting streets of Paris, the story follows Duchess and her three spirited kittens—Marie, Toulouse, and Berlioz—who are kidnapped by their owner’s scheming butler in a ploy to steal a fortune.
Stranded far from home, the pampered pets must team up with the charming and street-smart alley cat Thomas O’Malley. With help from a colorful crew of alley cats, country geese, and a loyal mouse, they embark on an unforgettable journey filled with surprises, laughter, and lots of music.
Featuring a toe-tapping score inspired by classic swing and jazz, The Aristocats KIDS brings Disney magic to life on stage with energy, humor, and heart. Performed by a talented cast of local young actors, this production is perfect for audiences of all ages—and a purr-fect way to spend time with the whole family.
