Sacramento's B Street Theatre performs in front of about 200 thousand children each year. This morning they performed in front of about 10 children at Sutter Memorial's pediatric ward.
Play Excerpt: "Well what is it doctor There seems to be a problem with your son's brain. Well what is it? It's missing. Missing!?"
Amy Medovoy is the Child Life Coordinator at Sutter Children's
Center. She says the B Street performs at the hospital a
couple times a year.
AMY MEDOVOY: "It really just brings something special to
their day and takes them away from what they're her in the hospital
for."
Jamie Romas manages the theatre troupe.
JAMIE RAMOS: "We have been doing this for 25 years and
actually the B Street Theater was founded as a children's theater,
which not everyone knows."
Romas says all the plays are written by children who live in the Sacramento area. She says Sutter's new 29th Street medical center will have a stage specifically for these types of performances.
