Great literature is for all ages – so is great theatre. We inspire children to read by bringing literature to life through our unique and fun readers theatre style. Live theatre provokes the imagination, a key ingredient to being a good reader.  Children listen to our stories with their hearts, howl from their guts and participate creatively with their hands and minds. Perfect for school assemblies, family events, libraries and a wonderful way to celebrate the joy of reading!  Check out the video to see us in action!

​Is The Key To The Magic Carpet Theatre

"Your creativity is unrivaled in school assemblies. You make children want to read the stories you perform and even more. Even after the third time I have seen your group, I am still amazed at the enthusiasm for reading that you create in our students, both lower and upper grades." - Sue Ott, Hubbard Lake Elementary
