About the Conference

Imagine:

Kould you imagine a place where you can see 3 Terrific, World Class, Live Children's Shows presented before an audience of experts: kids! A School Show and 2 KIDshows with top performers from the UK, Finland and the US?

If there was quality time that you could spend with the best lecturer's, teachers and performers from around the KIDshow world, how would you use the time and incredible opportunity? People like Max Howard, Dean Allen Carnegie and Barry Mitchell who inspire you!

Did you know, you could learn the creation of routines for your show from studying the most creative folks in our industry? And that it would be so much fun and educational too? (After all once you have a great trick, prop or skit, the work has just begun to turn it into something folks are eager to watch.) Thinkers like Jim Kleefeld, Duane Laflin, who get your creative juices flowing!

A place where could you go to experience so many styles, viewpoints, theory, and real world expertise of performing for kids and families. How cool it would be to be a part of a chance conversation with Jimbo, Shabum, and Kimmo talking shop!

Best friends coming together and forging new lifetime friendships and invaluable networking. Find yourself hangin' with folks like Ken Scott, Dave Andrews, and Skip Way!

Resources, a veritable candy store for performers every need, assembled in one place, at one time, like no other place in the world! Walking around making your dream list with Harry, Steve, Marty, Marcy, Wolf, and more!

And you could do all of this in a resort like atmosphere at one of the top family fun destinations in the US. Maybe even squeezing in a visit to Terry Evanswood's Show, Dollywood, one of the Outlet malls and a hike through the mountains while you're there.

There is a place! A Conference that exists, only one place on Earth!

Please join us August 8-12th, 201 during KIDabra Conference where, "Incredible" is the norm! We can't wait to see you!
