“Mother Goose” at Nashville Children’s Theatre

This production invites your youngest audience members into a playful retelling of Mother Goose's day, complete with beloved nursery rhymes brought to life on stage. The show is designed to be silly, engaging, and interactive—encouraging little ones to join in as stories unfold and characters come alive. A central message woven throughout: working together makes any task easier and more fun. Mother Goose is part of NCT's Snuggery Series, which specializes in theater experiences for children ages 0–5. The theatre recognizes that young learners benefit from early exposure to live performance, which supports their cognitive, social, and emotional development. All NCT performances include sensory-friendly options, and the venue offers practical supports like booster seats for better sightlines, a chill corner for overstimulation breaks, noise-reducing headphones, and visual schedules to help children understand what's coming next. Preshow lobby activities give families a chance to explore the show's themes before curtain. The theatre is fully wheelchair accessible, and staff can discuss specific accessibility needs when you book tickets.
