Wheels on the Bus, is a high energy 45 minute interactive musical for children aged 1-6. Originally developed and performed by Bay Area Children’s Theatre in California, the musical is based on the popular nursery rhyme of the same name. The show takes the audience on a journey through bus driver training school where the young cadets must learn their right from their left and how to count to 10, not to mention some groovy dance moves before they can graduate and officially drive the bus!
Through the use of song, dance and storytelling to engage the young audience, the children are taught things such as letters, numbers, and shapes, with the characters on stage interacting directly with the audience. Each child receives a bag of toys which help them interact with the actors on stage through each activity and song – and the kids get to take this “toolkit” with them so they can continue the fun at home!.
