Bringing ‘Pickle’ to the Blue Water stage was pure magic, captivating audiences from the youngest to the oldest! The fresh take on modern pop/rock classics was a hit with everyone, and it was especially inspiring to see how deeply the show connected with both our performers and audiences of all ages. The energy and enthusiasm with which our young actors tackled this material was infectious, and their performances clearly resonated with kids and adults alike. The show’s message of kindness and community felt timely and relevant, reminding everyone of the importance of compassion and friendship.

‘Pickle’ is a show that truly transcends age demographics. The laughter, engagement, and post-show conversations we witnessed were a testament to the show’s ability to entertain and inspire both young minds and adult audience members. It’s a testament to the power of live performance to create a shared experience that unites generations.

We’re so grateful for the collaborative spirit of the ‘Pickle’ team. Their willingness to engage with our artists and support our vision made the entire production process a joy. Their enthusiasm, care, and passion are contagious. We couldn’t recommend ‘Pickle’ more highly for any theater looking to create a truly magical experience for audiences of all ages, especially those with a heart for nurturing young talent and fostering a love of theater in the next generation.” – Maridee Slater, Former Artistic Director, Blue Water Theatre
