Family Shows & Performances in Baltimore — Theater, Music & More

Live performances spark something in kids that screens can't replicate. Baltimore's theaters, concert venues, and community stages host regular family-friendly shows — from puppet theater and children's concerts to Broadway touring productions adapted for young audiences. Many offer sensory-friendly performances too.
