Let the Story Pirates take your children on a journey so wild it could only come from the imaginations of kids!

The Story Pirates play colorful characters who sing, dance and improv their way through never-before (and never-again!) seen adventures. Based in New York and Los Angeles, Story Pirates has grown to reach hundreds of thousands of children in more than 200 schools across the country.
