Kids can rocket into space during the live musical production “Awesome Allie: First Kid Astronaut!” debuting at The Cradle of Aviation Museum’s Dome Theatre in Garden City March 31.
Allie is on a mission to save the Earth — and still be home for dinner — accompanied by her trusty talking dog Captain Chaos and Rover the Dancing Robot from Mars.
The show, presented by Plaza Theatrical Productions of Lynbrook, runs through April 8 and is 50 minutes long with no intermission. Combo tickets, which include museum admission, are $20 ($18 ages 2-12 and senior citizens, 62 and older). Tickets for the show only are $15 ($13 ages 2-12 and senior citizens, 62 and older).
After the show runs on Long Island, Plaza Theatrical is hoping it will embark on a national tour to be presented in air and space museums.
The Cradle of Aviation Museum is on Charles Lindbergh Boulevard, Garden City. For showtimes and reservations, call 516-572-4066 or visit cradleofaviation.org.
