The Imaginators

When siblings Anne and Tim move to a new town, Anne wants to seem older—and wants nothing to do with her little brother. Then the next-door neighbor appears: the fabulous Nina Frances Elizabeth Vanderhelden, master of make-believe. With moving boxes and odds-and-ends from the garage, Nina launches the trio into an epic adventure where they outwit the child-eating Mooklecratz, discover hidden bravery, and learn how much stronger they are together. By the end, Anne, Tim, and Nina remind us that imagination isn’t just play—it’s a powerful tool for facing fears, making friends, and seeing ourselves anew, and it invites kids and adults never to lose their sense of play and creativity. This play includes a brief meet and greet with the actors in costume after the show!

Ideal for children ages 5 to 11. Running time: 45 minutes plus optional 15 minute meet and greet after the play. Themes: friendship, courage, creativity, cooperation. This children's play will be performed at The Off Center for the Dramatic Arts. Seating is limited.
