Bringing live, professional entertainment for children and families, to Sault Ste Marie


Over the Rainbow Children’s Entertainment Series is Sault Ste Marie’s first live theatre series for children ages 3 and up. The shows have entertained, enchanted, and created lasting memories for many families for over 25 years.
Audiences are introduced to fantastic worlds where the imagination soars, participation is encouraged, and lessons in trust, caring and integrity are learned.
We bring quality children’s entertainers to our community audiences at an affordable price. We are a not-for-profit volunteer organization and we subsidize ticket pricing through federal, provincial, and municipal arts grants and generous local sponsors.

Sounds Crazy
2pm Sunday January 24/2027
Sault Community Theatre Centre (White Pines)
We can only imagine, but likely the first musicians accidentally twanged the string of their hunting bow, blew across the top of a piece of bamboo or between two blades of grass, or hit two sticks together... We, too, can make music out of found items, even stuff that is headed for the landfill site. Our homemade instruments won't have the most sophisticated sounds, but their construction will have the essence of, and be played using the same principles as the finest, most expensive store-bought kind!
The Lady Next Door
Circus, physical theatre and clowning
2pm Sunday March 21/2027
Sault Community Theatre Centre (White Pines)
This is the story of two neighbors who share a common yard. The two women are very different, even antagonistic. One is rather orderly and organized, while the other is messy and exuberant. As you can see, the first one often disturbs the other one! Huguette, this exuberant woman, takes pleasure in hanging out her laundry with her singing very loudly, setting up her tent for nights of camping in heryard, or practicing her acrobatic bicycle with a disturbance. But what bothers her neighbor Vana the most is her overflowing garbage cans, not to mention her snoring.
The neighbors learn to communicate and finally understand each other better. And a glimmer of friendship eventually appears between these two women, who are perhaps not so different after all.
This clownish female duo will make you laugh till you cry!
Club Origami
RIP, FOLD AND SCRUMPLE!
2pm Saturday May 15/2027
