As a theatre teacher myself, I just really appreciate you fostering a love of theatre through a very low pressure environment in LITTLE LIBRARY MUSICALS. That can be a rare thing- there aren’t many opportunities for little ones to have the chance to shine by themselves on stage without being in the chorus of a higher pressure “big kids” show until they’re older. My son just had a blast, and we’ve signed up for next month! - Katie C.

Our new Little Library Musical series for age 4-6 presents new mini-musicals with creative twists on favorite childrens stories! Each month, our young actors learn and prepare a new RPL-original mini musical to perform for friends and family.
Our upcoming Little Library Musical is called “Hey Diddle What?” and it is all about a group of kids who decide to put on a musical – as they figure out all the elements (script, set, costumes, props, etc.) – everything gets mixed up in a delightfully silly way!

Each child receives a CD to play at home, to practice at home and learn songs and simple lines. These short shows allow a positive opportunity for young actors to become comfortable on stage, and feel the achievement of producing an actual show - with lights, sounds, and costume pieces - at the end!
Register Soon! Space is limited and will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis.

"My son has loved his LITTLE LIBRARY MUSICAL experience. Every day he asks me when we can come back, and I love that he gets the experience of being in an actual production! The attention to detail in this program is fantastic and perfectly aligned with the needs of children this age." - Katy S.

Broadway Babies (age 2-3)
BROADWAY BABIES has shown me that kids are capable to do and learn so many things at such a young age. The fact that they can follow instructions to create a short play is amazing! All the patience that Ms. Marney has and the way she teaches them really makes a great difference in how quickly they catch everything. - Carla P.
We invite young toddlers age 2-3 onto the Read Play Love stage to sing, dance, and play! This program is born from our desire to provide a 100% playful experience with no pressure in which the little ones can be introduced to the stage and have fun!
Each session consists of:
- 4 weekly 45-minute sessions
- A performance after the finl session, including lights, sound and costumes for the kids!
- A CD play at home, to encourage familiarity with the songs
- A video of the songs, to encourage multi-sensory learning through repetition
