CMT Mainstage presents Rock of Ages: Teen Edition at Montgomery Theater in San Jose.
It’s the tail end of the big, bad 1980s in Hollywood, and the party has been raging hard. Welcome to one of the Sunset Strip’s last legendary venues, a place where rock star Stacee Jaxx takes the stage and makes rock and roll dreams come true. Amidst the madness, aspiring rock star (and resident toilet cleaner) Drew longs to take the stage as the next big thing (and longs for small-town girl Sherri, fresh off the bus from Kansas with stars in her eyes).
But the rock ’n’ roll fairy tale is about to end when German developers sweep into town with plans to turn the fabled Strip into just another capitalist strip mall. Can Drew, Sherri and the gang save the strip – and themselves – before it’s too late? Only the music of hit bands Styx, Journey, Bon Jovi, Whitesnake and more hold the answer.
Recommended for Rating: Ages 13+. Run Time: 2 Hours 30 Minutes

CMT Rising Stars presents The Adventures of Tom Sawyer at Montgomery Theater in San Jose. ASL performance is scheduled for February 15, 2025 at 2 pm.
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is the irresistible story of a fourteen-year-old boy growing up in the heartland of America, based on the classic novel.
Set in 1840 Missouri, The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is the tale of young Tom Sawyer and the neverending mischief of which he so often finds himself a part; whether it’s matching wits with Aunt Polly, tricking his friends into whitewashing a fence for him or narrowly escaping the clutches of a murderous villain. Along with his best friend, Huckleberry Finn, and his love interest, Becky Thatcher, the greatest Tom Sawyer exploits are plucked from the book and plopped onto the stage.
Recommended for All Ages. Run time: approx. 2 hour and 15 minutes (including one 15 min. Intermission) ASL performance is scheduled for February 15, 2025 at 2 pm.

The Physics Shows are a series of fun, exciting demonstrations of the laws of nature. Expect that the lights will sometimes go out, loud noises are produced, and really “fun” scientific demonstrations.
Best age for the show is 5-12 years with the target age being elementary school. But I have taken kids in middle school and they have enjoyed it also.
The Physics Shows last approximately 75 minutes. The shows are put on by the Foothill College Physics Department. Parking is free in Lot 1.

Today: Greek Mythology Olympiaganza performed by the Los Altos Youth Theater.
Two battling narrators attempt to cover the entirety of Greek mythology using audience participation, cross-dressing, and general theatrical insanity. Creation myths such as Pandora’s Box and Cronos and the Titans jostle for space with other famous myths like Jason and the Argonauts (the original Super Friends). Culminating in a heart-pounding, five-minute, two-actor version of The Iliad, this fast-paced, free-wheeling play is wild, silly, and a complete blast for all ages.
Content Advisory: LAYT productions feature youth performers ages 8 to 18, and are typically appropriate for audiences of all ages. If you have any questions about this particular production, please call the box office for more information at 650-941-0551.
Please double-check the event information on the event website as sometimes events are canceled or details changed after they are added to CelebrateFamily.us.
$18 – $28
