“Sensory Friendly Theatre enables children and families to enjoy the excitement of a live performance in an inclusive, supportive environment that accommodates those with sensory sensitivities.

New Jersey native Laurie Berkner earned the title, “Queen of Kids’ Music” as the first recording artist ever to perform in music videos on Nick Jr. She also appeared regularly on the network’s Jack’s Big Music Show, and she helped develop the short form animated musical preschool series Sing It, Laurie! on Sprout TV.
The Greatest Hits solo show features the popular tunes “Bumblebee (Buzz Buzz),” “Victor Vito,” “We Are The Dinosaurs,” “Pig On Her Head,” and “Rocketship Run” plus – as a special treat for fans –well-loved songs that are not often heard at full-band concerts!
