Tempe children’s theatre begins recovery after microburst damage
Oct. 28
Childsplay, the long-standing children’s theater in Tempe, has halted operations after a destructive microburst severely damaged its facility.
The organization, which has served Arizona students since 1977, is now assessing the extent of the damage while already facing financial strain following the loss of federal arts funding.
Childsplay stages educational performances statewide and runs theatre camps, reaching an estimated one in five Arizona schoolchildren.
Managing Director Steve Martin joins “Arizona Horizon” to share where recovery efforts stand and what the future may hold.
