What Do You Do With an Idea? A New Musical

What Do You Do With an Idea?

Where do ideas come from? What if an idea were like a creature? What would it need to sprout wings and fly? Find out in this enchanting, playful, utterly unique musical story about the transformative power of creativity — made just for kids.

Music & Lyrics by Sharon Kenny
Script by Cristina Pippa
Based on the New York Times bestselling book by Kobi Yamada

What Do You Do With an Idea? is not only a beloved children’s book but has since been adapted into a variety of artistic mediums, including this magical production by 92NY’s Theater for Young Audiences. This curriculum guide is designed in connection with 92NY’s production of What Do You Do With an Idea?. The activities are meant to engage children (primarily PreK-1st Grade) in creative and imaginative play. These activities can be done in your classroom, or with your little one at home. You can download the guide as a PDF to complete the activities.

Is this your child’s first theater experience? Check out our Social Story designed to prepare children ahead of time, for what they can expect when they come see a show here at 92NY. You can download the Social Story as a PDF and read it with your child before you come!
