The Marvel Avengers S.T.A.T.I.O.N is a chance to play around with some cool gadgets and even participate in simulations to test your skills. You can fly like Iron Man, try lifting Thor's hammer, or see if you can solve problems like Bruce Banner. It's not just a fun day out, but it's also a chance to learn about science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) in a fun and engaging way. Plus, you can learn about the history of the Avengers and their impact on pop culture. You'll also get an inside look at how the movies were made!

MAGICAL. MISCHIEVOUS. MIRACULOUS. THE AWARD-WINNING STAGE SENSATION. Set in a small English village, Matilda, a brilliant little girl, is an avid reader with a lively imagination. But to her self-absorbed parents and tyrannical headmistress, sheâs nothing more than a nuisance and a troublemaker. Through the support of her kind teacher, Ms. Honey, and the strength of her whimsical storytelling abilities, Matilda uses her newfound magical powers to âfight for the right to be a little bit naughty.â Featuring toe-tapping songs, outstanding dance numbers, and true theatre magic, Roald Dahlâs Matilda The Musical is a fast-paced adventure perfect for the whole family.
