A Faery Hunt Magical Adventure at Orcutt Ranch

On Sunday, November 22, Orcutt Ranch hosts A Faery Hunt, an interactive musical adventure staged outdoors for young children and their families. If you are collecting things to do with kids LA has to offer this fall, this one trades screens and crowds for trees, costumes and a story the kids help tell.

When: Sunday, November 22, 2026. The listing says the performance starts at 10:30 a.m. Where: Orcutt Ranch Who it is for: Kids ages 2 to 9 and the grown-ups who come with them Tickets: See the TheaterMania listing for pricing and availability

What to expect

A Faery Hunt shows are built to be immersive rather than sit-and-watch. The audience moves through the setting with the faery characters, joins in the music and plays a part in the quest. TheaterMania lists the running time at about 50 minutes with no intermission, a sensible length for small attention spans.

The company says Nickelodeon named it the "Best Children's Theater in Los Angeles." Treat that as the company's own billing. What the listing does make clear is the target audience: ages 2 to 9, with the tone aimed at wonder and play, not scares.

After the show, the faery folk stay for a meet and greet. The listing counts it as part of the experience, so there is time for photos and a chat with the characters. Kids who like to dress up will fit right in, and a wing or flower crown is a natural choice, though nothing in the listing makes costumes a requirement.

Why it works for families

Plenty of family events Los Angeles parents find involve long lines or loud rooms. This is a morning outing in nature with a clear start time and a short runtime, so it leaves the rest of the day open for lunch or a walk. It also suits mixed-age groups, since toddlers and early-elementary kids can follow the same simple story.

Getting there

Orcutt Ranch sits on Roscoe Boulevard in the West Hills area of the San Fernando Valley, at 23600 Roscoe Blvd according to the listing. Arrive a little early, since outdoor shows tend to start with a gathering period. Bring water, sunscreen or a light jacket depending on the day, and shoes that handle dirt paths. Check the ticket page for the latest details before you go, because this is a listing-based preview and plans can change.
