Paper Dreams

In a brand-new collaboration with Mons Dansa Dance Company, Imagination Stage brings to life their first dance performance-based show for ages 1-5 that explores the many facets of creativity.

Imagination Stage presents Paper Dreams, a fun, interactive production that tells the story of two delightful, clown-like creatures, and asks if our greatest mistake can actually turn out to be the next great innovative idea.

Paper Dreams

  • From March 11 trough April 9. Performances are Saturdays and Sundays at 10 am. and 11:15 am. ASL-Interpreted performance on March 25 at 11:15 am.
  • At Imagination Stage’s Christopher and Dana Reeve Studio.
  • Best for ages 1-5.

“I am so excited to bring our first-ever dance show for the very young to Imagination Stage. This show, conceived and written by the Mons Dansa Dance Theatre Company of Barcelona is filled with such joy and humor,” says Director Kathryn Chase Bryer. “Our collaboration with them last year was magical, and after working with these international artists, I am thrilled to be able to bring the American version of this story to life. I am constantly amazed at how Paper Dreams can communicate so much through simple movement and humorous gesture, and I know our audience will be fascinated with the creative props, set, and costumes!”

Paper Dreams features both new and familiar faces to Imagination Stage audiences. Anna Lynch returns to Imagination Stage to perform in Paper Dreams after she understudied Boxes, Boxes, Boxes! and Inside Out. Sara Herrera is excited to make her Imagination Stage debut. Sara is the Artistic Director and Founder of ArasDance, the Petworth Dance series, and the Petworth Arts Collaborative, and has performed with GALA Hispanic Theatre.
