"Something for the children" San Antonio Off The Beaten Path Tip by TheWanderingCamel

If you're bringing children to San Antonio, a visit to the Majik Children's Theatre may be just the ticket. A full-time, professional children's theatre dedicated to providing exciting and affordable live theatre performances for children (and adults) of all ages, the theatre is a great favourite with San Antonio audiences.

Check the website for the 2008 programme of plays and musicals.

The Majik Theatre has its home in the historic Beethoven Hall on South Alamo, just by the entrance to Hemisphere Park. The Hall was built in 1913 to replace an earlier concert hall built by the Beethoven Mannerchor, a German men's voice choir that first started singing together in the city in 1847, and was purchased by the city in 1920 when the choir built a new concert hall. Even if you can't attend a performance, and especially if you're a theatre-lover, a peek into the theatre with its brightly painted foyer and auditorium will give you a little buzz. It's so great to see what can be done to foster a love of live theatre in children and the company appreciate the interest in their work.
