Catriona's Castle performance at the National Theatre Saturday Children's Series during a production of Jack and the Beanstalk, in the Helen Hayes Theatre. Approximately 30 children, from the audience, were chosen at random, to perform the story with Catriona, the Fairy Godmother.

   
Typical Theatre set up - The Secret Garden, The Wizard of Oz , and Jack and the Beanstalk. Each story has fun kid-size scenery. The Secret Garden has a garden wall complete with garden gate door that opens and antique wheelchair. Cinderella has a pumpkin coach. The Fairy Godmother whisks off the soft-sculpture pumpkin, revealing a coach, complete with door that opens. Cinderella goes through the door and has the illusion of going to the ball! The Sleeping Beauty has a bed and full spinning wheel. The Wizard of Oz has a winding yellow brick road. Jack and the Beanstalk has a long, winding beanstalk and a giant golden egg.
