Buttons and Pockets
2025 Edmonton International Fringe Theatre Festival
Aug. 23, 2025, 6:49 a.m.

This smart, science-focused kids’ show captivated my 3-year-old (who thought it was “so funny” but probably didn’t understand everything) and my 7-year-old (who liked “Buttons coming to life” and “the part when they made the solar system”). Older audience members get to appreciate the brilliant word play, nerdy jokes and strong performances. This was a unique show amongst the theatre for kids offerings and kept us talking about it for the rest of the afternoon. Loved it and would recommend for a range of ages.
