Published: Aug 31, 2022

The Broward Center for the Performing Arts has announced that The Islands of The Bahamas Imagination Series, a selection of fun-filled, family-friendly performances, will kick off in August. Performances will take place at the Broward Center and The Parker.

“We are delighted to introduce The Islands of The Bahamas Imagination Series and know that these performances will delight families, providing wonderful ways to introduce children to the magic of live theater,” said Broward Center President and CEO Kelley Shanley. “The Islands of The Bahamas offer world-class activities that allow families to share unforgettable moments together, much in the way we create magical experiences on stage for our audiences. The Islands of The Bahamas Imagination Series allows us to bring more family performances to our community and continue to ignite that spark for live performances that will last a lifetime.”

Because of its close proximity to Florida, The Bahamas is one of the top tourist destinations for local residents. With more than 700 islands and cays, as well as 16 unique island destinations, The Islands of The Bahamas offers world-class fishing, diving, boating, birding and nature-based activities; thousands of miles of the earth’s most spectacular water; and pristine beaches waiting for families, couples and adventurers.

“The Bahamas’ partnership with the Broward Center for the Performing Arts offers our islands tremendous exposure, which will be quite instrumental in getting our message to Floridians that The Bahamas, just 50 miles offshore, is the perfect vacation getaway, " said Betty Bethel-Moss, Director - Florida Sales.

Among the shows included in The Islands of The Bahamas Imagination Series are PAW Patrol Live! The Great Pirate Adventure!, Disney Junior Live On Tour: Costume Palooza!, Cirque Dreams Holidaze, Disney’s Winnie the Pooh: The New Musical Stage Adaptation, Dragons and Mythical Beasts, Blue’s Clues & YOU!, and Madagascar The Musical.
