In the whimsical land of New Jersey, a state known for its vibrant boardwalks, lush greenery, and an inexplicable number of diners, dwells a troop of extraordinary kids engaged in a magical activity known as Theater/Drama. New Jersey, or as it's known in the secret world of drama - "The Stage State," is a hidden treasure trove of talent, where kids get to explore their dramatic genius. Our story revolves around a quirky imaginary character, Sir Thespian Llama, or as his friends call him, "Thespi-Llama." Now Thespi-Llama isn't your ordinary llama. He doesn't graze meadows or climb mountains. He's got a passion for the theater, a snazzy waistcoat, and a habit of reciting Shakespeare at the most unexpected of times. The kids of New Jersey, inspired by their furry, dramatic compatriot, dive headfirst into the world of theater! They're the kind of kids who treat life as their stage, never missing a chance to perform, be it at school, at the dinner table, or even while brushing their teeth! They play everything from rambunctious pirates to wise wizards, from giggling goblins to elegant elves, with a zeal that can outshine Broadway! This bunch of drama enthusiasts, led by our Thespi-Llama, fill every day with their infectious laughter, wild creativity, and a sprinkle of madness. They make their state proud, keeping the drama alive, in more ways than one. So, when you ask someone about New Jersey, they might talk about the beaches, the parks, or the food, but if you ask Thespi-Llama, he'd say it's the kids in theater who make this state truly extraordinary!

The power of the arts is like no other. It has the ability to inspire, to move, to heal and to connect us in ways that words may not. There is a special joy that comes with knowing that you have the opportunity to teach your children the importance of this language from a young age. It is a gift that will stay with them forever and be a part of their lives in the most meaningful of ways. At Garden Street, we strive to give children and their families the chance to explore and express themselves through music, dance, literature and art. We have seen firsthand the incredible impact that this has had on our community, and now that I am raising my own two sons here, I couldn't be more pleased to be part of a community that shares my passion for the arts. Our mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for these young artists to grow and develop, and to continue to show our support and appreciation for the parents and caregivers who provide the support and guidance for their children's creativity.
