Who We Are
Who We Are
Your Child’s Party
was created with quality talent in mind. All of our performers are working actors who have a passion for children’s entertainment!
Courtney studied musical theatre at the Randolph Academy in Toronto. She found her love for children’s theatre while working at a number of theaters in Toronto. She started Your Child’s Party to give parents the chance to offer their kids a party they will never forget! Since we have real performers our parties are guaranteed to be high energy and theatrical. She performs all over Canada mainly doing children’s theatre. “Kids are the best kind of audience, since they won’t be polite if you aren’t entertaining them. Plus you never know what is going to happen next”.
