      I am hesitant about various children’s fads and toys, but inevitably, my son was smitten with Thomas the Tank Engine at a young age. When the show began at the Long Center, my 4 year old son was immediately engaged. Not only did he sit still the entire length of the hour-long show, he responded to every cue for audience participation from the able performers on stage. In essence, the show incorporated all the mainstay characters of the Thomas series, including Percy, Sir Topham Hat, and even a nasty Diesel engine. The actors, who interchanged between engineers and townspeople preparing for a big Lantern Festival, were quite animated and agile, and somehow moved large train engine replicas on stage in small circles and various other tricks. My son sat fully alert in his seat, singing with the peppy songs, laughed at the toddler humor and goofy jokes, and then ran down to the stage as the show ended to sweep up some of the colored paper that cascaded on the set in the show’s big finale!
