The Rainbow Fish

July 10, 11, 21, 22, 23, 2026

A free outdoor theatre experience for families—created and performed by Adirondack Theatre Festival’s 2026 Intern Company.

For generations, The Rainbow Fish has been a favorite story, known for its shimmering foil pages and timeless lesson about sharing. The most beautiful fish in the ocean learns that true happiness comes not from being admired, but from generosity and connection.

This playful stage adaptation brings the beloved story to life with color, movement, and imagination, inviting young audiences to experience live theatre in a joyful, welcoming setting. As the Rainbow Fish learns to share his scales, he discovers friendship, belonging, and the lasting value of kindness—reminding us that inner beauty matters more than outward sparkle.

Presented free at Glens Falls City Park in collaboration with Crandall Public Library and The Touba Foundation, The Rainbow Fish is proudly produced and performed by ATF’s 2026 Intern Company. This special community offering gives emerging artists hands-on professional experience while ensuring that families across our region can enjoy live theatre together—at no cost.

Bring a blanket, bring the kids, and join us for a summer tradition built on storytelling, sharing, and community.
