Peter Alsop's Kids Koncerts

Sunday mornings mean fun for families at Will Geer’s Theatricum Botanicum in Topanga. A sure sign that it’s summer vacation, Peter Alsop’s annual Kids Koncerts series kicks off on July 13 at 10:30 a.m. in Theatricum’s magical outdoor amphitheater-in-the-woods.

This summer’s line-up includes Baila Baila Band (July 13); Gwendolyn and the Good Time Gang (July 27); The Hollow Trees (Aug. 3); Love Bug & Me (Aug. 10); Randy Kaplan (Aug. 24); Rhythm Child (Sept, 7); Roger Day (Sept. 14); and series founder Peter Alsop (Sept. 21).

“Theatricum’s spectacular outdoor venue in the middle of Topanga Canyon is the perfect place for parents and kids to enjoy these great children’s artists,” says Alsop. “Each concert becomes a unique adventure. It’s something you can't get just sitting in front of a TV.”

An award-winning singer/songwriter, lecturer and humorist, Alsop has been curating the Kids Koncerts series every summer since 1992, a reflection of Theatricum's ongoing commitment to arts education, young audiences and local artists. 

Peter Alsop’s Kids Koncerts take place on Sunday mornings at 10:30 a.m., July 13 through Sept. 21 (dark July 20, Aug. 17 and Aug. 31).
