MamaSez in Theatre

Not strictly for very young kids but notice that there's lots of classic theatre for those who are fans. Shakespeare on Love, Hamlet for a modern audience and The Hypochondriac by Moliere which is even funnier than The Miser which we did in school. The principal was a fan of Moliere and Sheridan, so lots of their plays got staged. They were the equivalent of today's sitcoms but so much more clever at farce.
