McCarter Theatre Center (Matthews Theatre)
91 University Place, Princeton, NJ 08540

Recognized as “the queen of kids’ music” by People magazine, Laurie Berkner is a singer, songwriter, performer, author, and founder of Two Tomatoes Records, LLC. With more than 1.7 billion total streams, an average of more than 22 million monthly streams, more than 578 million YouTube channel views, and millions of CDs and DVDs sold, Laurie’s songs have become beloved classics for children worldwide.

11:00 AM - Laurie Berkner Solo: Greatest Hits (Sensory-Friendly/Relaxed Performance)

For her sensory-friendly performances, Laurie performs in an environment that has been adapted to provide a welcoming atmosphere for individuals with autism, learning differences, or other sensory and communication needs, so that they and their families may enjoy Laurie's live performance together.

At a sensory-friendly performance, the concert is performed at the same high quality as always, with the light and sound levels adjusted slightly to create a more sensory-sensitive environment. Sensory-friendly performances are “shush-free” zones where patrons are free to talk and leave their seats throughout the performance, as well as bringing their own snacks, fidgets, and communications devices with them to their seats

Most of all, a sensory-friendly performance is a judgment-free environment, where all are welcome to enjoy the performance in whatever way makes the experience work for them. 

3:00 PM - The Laurie Berkner Band: Greatest Hits 

In concert, Laurie is joined by her band in classic songs like “Bumblebee (Buzz Buzz),” “The Goldfish (Let’s Go Swimming),” “We Are The Dinosaurs,” and “Rocketship Run,” as well as newer hits like “Waiting for the Elevator,” “Onyx the Octopus,” and “Chipmunk at the Gas Pump.” Kids should plan to bring their dancing shoes and a stuffed animal (for their heads). 

A limited number of VIP Meet and Greet Packages are available for $85. Package price includes preferred seating and a meet-and-greet and photo opportunity with Laurie Berkner.
