If you’re coming from the suburbs, driving is the way to go. It was around 9:20 pm by the time we left the theater for the 7pm performance, which was okay for my little owls, but is something to keep in mind for bedtime. The show is approximately 90 minutes, there’s an intermission time added, and an optional meet-and-greet photo opportunity afterwards for an additional fee. It was a night I know they will be talking about for months to come! Quite a few audience members brought their own dolls to the show, but I was worried about keeping track of them so we kept ours at home. Going to a show like this, especially one in the city, was a very special occasion for our girls. They can be sensitive to loud sounds in movie theaters, but I never saw either of them cover their ears during this performance. With great costumes and set design, it was the perfect balance of being engaging but not so stimulating that my girls were overwhelmed by it. The Broadway Playhouse theater is on the smaller side, so there’s truly not a bad seat in the house. My girls also loved the overarching theme of camping, and seeing each character’s American Girl doll accompany them throughout the performance. The positive vibe and uplifting energy was felt long after the show ended. I loved the messages about being a good friend, standing up for yourself, and persevering in tough situations. The songs were catchy and the cast was phenomenal. Most families had children around this age, but slightly older girls seemed to be just as happy. My daughters, ages 5.5 and almost 4, loved everything about American Girl Live.
