BIRTHDAYS

Looking for something special to do for your child's next birthday? Just bring them and a whole bunch of their friends to Way Off Broadway's Children's Theatre. This is really a great way to hold a birthday party. You bring the kids, we provide the entertainment and the food! Here are the details:
All you have to do is call the
theatre's Box
Office at (301) 662-6600 to purchase tickets for any of our
regularly scheduled Children's Theatre performances. Seating
is limited by the number of available seats for that show, so don't
wait until the last minute or we may very well be sold out. In
fact, most of our Children's shows sell out a couple of weeks in
advance.
We'll provide a drink, an entree, chips, a fruit snack for dessert, and the show. All you have to provide are the kids and the presents.
NOTE: Due to Health Department regulations,
birthday parties cannot bring in their own cake, or any other
"outside" food. However, if you would like a birthday
cake from the Way Off Broadway Bakery, give us a call.
9x13
cake is $15.90 1/2 sheet cake is $28.62
(prices include tax)
Before the show begins, one of the
characters in the show - the same one who has been serving your
party lunch - will bring out your birthday cake and everyone sings
"Happy Birthday."
If you want, you can stay after
the show and your party can join the cast up on stage for a
photograph. So don't forget your camera!
Tickets for the Children's Theatre
are $15.00 per person.
Gratuity not included.
When booking a birthday, parties of
10 or more require a $100 deposit.
You have two weeks before the party to give us your final count, with
your final payment due 10 days before the party.

Thats's all there is to it. So don't delay! Our children's shows are VERY popular and book up quickly. The minute you know what date you want to have your child's party, give us a call and make your reservation. Also, you might want to check out our "Party Tips" below. These are little tips that we've discovered work well for you, your kids, and everyone at WOB.
Plan your arrival time: You should probably plan on being there right when our doors open. For those purchasing the Birthday Package, you can arrive at 11:00 a.m., a half hour before the general public. The doors open for everyone else at 11:30 a.m. Getting there when the doors open will give you plenty of time to settle up anything with the Box Office and welcome all of your guests.
Bring a little help: If you have a large party - large being defined as more than you can handle by yourself - plan on having a few extra parents there to give you a hand. The theatre staff (i.e., your server and your host) will help when they can, but they'll have their hands full with just getting food and drink served to your party and anyone else they're responsible for. And, as I'm sure all of you Moms and Dads out there know, nothing can be more difficult to ride herd on than a bunch of excited eight year olds when they've been combined with cake. So don't be afraid to add a ticket or two for some help.
Decorations are OK, but...: Lots of
people like a theme birthday party, so they bring their own
napkins, etc. Just about anything you bring is okay with
us, but you should keep a few things in mind. Balloons are
great, but we have to make sure they're out of the way before
the show starts so that they aren't blocking the view of anyone
behind you. You should also steer clear of glitter or
little confetti-like things that look good when scattered on
your table but are no fun whatsoever when we try to
vacuum them out of the carpet. If you have something
that's going to take a little time to set up (place cards with
names, for example), feel free to show up a few minutes before
your guests arrive to do a little setting up before.
Finally, please leave those fancy table cloths that match
the napkins and cups at home. We've discovered that small
tykes tend to forget that those cloths aren't nailed down.
One good yank and everyone's drink is all over the
place.
