The Wyong venue this week launched its program for the summer school holidays, and the line-up is big on laughs and music.

And young children haven’t been forgotten, either.

The Art House’s marketing manager, Emily Miller, said the fun program would begin on January 10.

“First up, The Art House stage will be transformed into a vibrant Manhattan street corner as we present our first all-star musical, In The Heights,” Ms Miller said.

“The four-time Tony Award-winning musical comes to Sydney Opera House Concert Hall in mid-January, but not before an exclusive premiere season at The Art House.”

There will be performances on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, January 10, 11 and 12. Tickets cost $70 for adults.

A mini-festival of comedy will then open at The Art House on Wednesday, January 16, with Tom Ballard (tickets $35 adults).

Luke McGregor and Tommy Little will share a comedy double bill on Saturday, January 19. McGregor will perform at 7.30pm ($35 adults) and Little at 9pm ($35 adults).

Punters can also buy a ticket to both sets.

And Peter Helliar will bring it home with a show on Sunday, January 20 ($39 adults).

The Art House is also offering a four-show pass.

“The Art House is banking on there being a show for just about every kind of comedy fan,” Ms Miller said.

Children’s shows and a workshop are also features of the school holiday program.

The Escape from Trash Mountain show will feature a trash puppet workshop when it is performed on Friday and Saturday, January 18 and 19.

Young audience members are invited to join the puppet heroes as they escape the dreaded landfill and fight trash bats and outwit trash monsters.

And the Children are Stinky show and workshop will be staged at The Art House on January 21, 22 and 23.

This one featured circus acts, a rocking 1990s soundtrack, and genuine belly laughs, Ms Miller said.
