My oldest song, who is not a fan of musicals ended up dancing with us at the end, and my husband joined the fun throughout the walk. We learned about theaters, music, plays, and even we got some strangers to clap at our street signing attempts!! Honestly, the best tour of all!!!”

I would say make sure to buy the extra pad where you can get the yummy popcorn, it's an absolute must have for kids under 12 years old I would say. If you can get an Aisle seat in the Stalls it would be the best experience too! Make sure to use the restroom before you sit because you won't really be able to leave (nor do you want to) and the lines at intermission are extremely long!”
