1. How To Be A Kid

Venue: Gateway Theatre Black Box
Dates: 6 - 8 Nov, 13 - 15 Nov 2026
Admission: $45

Supergirl. That’s what Molly’s Mum and Grandma used to call her when she was little. For a while, she believed it – thought she had real superpowers. But as she got older, she realised that she was just an ordinary girl. Or was she? 

Molly is twelve, and her little brother Joe is six. One day, Grandma didn’t wake up – and now Mum can’t stop crying. So Molly becomes a Supergirl again. She cooks, she washes the dishes, she gets Joe ready for school. Supergirl can do everything. Supergirl doesn’t cry. But being Supergirl doesn’t feel much like being a kid anymore. 

Now that Mum is finally starting to feel better, maybe things can go back to normal. They can’t turn back time, but they can face their worries together. 

How To Be A Kid is an uplifting and accessible story about grief, resilience, and the need for families to communicate about their feelings – and heal together.

2. The Grass That Flowers

Venue: Drama Centre Black Box
Season: 11 - 14 Nov 2026
Admission: $24

Beneath the ocean’s waves lies a secret world waiting to be discovered. The Grass That Flowers invites children into the amazing world of the humble seagrass meadow—a wondrous underwater community teeming with life. 

Where marine science meets the art of dance, this fantastical performance reimagines familiar sea creatures as magical water spirits. Meet the mischievous sea gremlins who bully minuscule fish; the generous eight-armed weaver god who knits protective blankets of seagrass for juvenile fish and more! Mayhem ensues when human disruptions turns the seagrass world upside down. All sea deities, kind or mean, will have to band together and fight for their community’s survival.

This performance is brought to life by a dynamic cast of professional dancers from ARTS FISSION and children performers. The show translates complex ecological concepts—such as conservation, ecosystem, and anthropogenic impact—into a magical and accessible learning experience for children.

There will be a 15-minute interactive introduction before each performance, curated by TeamSeaGrass. Children will get to see local seagrass species and learn about the amazing wildlife that lives in Singapore’s seagrass meadows.

Together, the fearless foursome embark on the adventure of a lifetime, one fraught with trials and dangers aplenty. Can they contain the rowdy mischief of the fire-breathing Red Boy? Will they be able to defeat the monstrous shape-shifting King Bull? How in the world will they get their hands on the magic fan of the man-eating Princess Iron Fan? Most importantly, will Ah Tang ever find a place that he can call home, truly?

7. DINO-A-LIVE's DINOSAUR ODYSSEY

Venue: Resorts World Sentosa
Dates: 3 - 6 Dec 2026 
Admission: from $58

Making its international debut outside Japan, DINOSAUR ODYSSEY is a 70-minute indoor live performance by DINO-A-LIVE that brings 15 life-sized dinosaurs into the hall to move, breathe, and roam right next to the audience. Instead of viewing static museum displays or watching creatures on a screen, families get to experience what it feels like to stand in the presence of living prehistoric giants.

The main highlight of the show is the sheer scale and realism of the creatures. The production features a lineup of 15 dinosaurs, including the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops, Stegosaurus, Brachiosaurus, Ankylosaurus, Parasaurolophus, Suchomimus, Allosaurus, Utahraptor, and Dakotaraptor.

Because the dinosaurs move freely throughout the space, children and parents can see their scale and movements from a remarkably close distance.

While the non-verbal format is easy for children of all ages to follow, these life-sized dinosaurs move close to the audience and roar dynamically. If you have younger toddlers who are sensitive to loud noises or large moving figures, booking Category 3 or Category 4 seats slightly further back provides a full view of the stage while keeping the experience comfortable.

Tickets will be available on SISTIC and Klook from 3 Sep 2026, 12pm with early bird discounts of 10% off till 9 Sep 2026.
