Young Performers Bring Disney's The Aristocats KIDS to Life at Manatee Performing Arts Center

Families are in for a delightful evening of music, laughter, and feline adventure as the Manatee Performing Arts Center presents Disney’s The Aristocats KIDS on Friday, June 27, 2025, at 7:00 p.m.

This high-energy production, part of the center’s For KIDS By KIDS series, showcases young local talent in a whimsical adaptation of the beloved Disney animated film. Set in the heart of Paris, the story follows Duchess and her three kittens as they inherit a fortune, only to be cat-napped by a scheming butler. With the help of street-smart alley cat Thomas O’Malley and his jazzy band of feline friends, the family embarks on an unforgettable journey filled with heart, humor, and swingin’ tunes.

The show’s upbeat score, colorful characters, and fast-paced action make it a purr-fect outing for audiences of all ages. Ticket sales directly support the theater’s youth education programs, which provide performance opportunities and arts education to children throughout the community.

All attendees, including young children, must have a ticket. Discounted student tickets are available through the Box Office at (941) 748-5875 during regular hours, Tuesday through Friday, or one hour before showtime.
