Kids from Wisconsin

The Kids from Wisconsin is part of an entertainment tradition that goes back nearly 50 years to its beginnings as a musical production created for Wisconsin’s talented youth back in 1969. Today, the pride and passion that fueled that early music lives on through a Kids from Wisconsin Revue.

Performing live annually for more than 100,000 across Wisconsin and the Midwest, the Kids from Wisconsin presents top of the line entertainment with some of Wisconsin’s most talented performers ages 15-20. The revue is produced in collaboration with some of the country's best writers, arrangers, and choreographers. Costumes are designed and created in Broadway style, adding to the already exciting performance.

We maintain a broad repertoire of music that includes the American classics, big band, 50s through the 80s, swing/jazz, country, Broadway and current top hits, filling a two hour fully staged performance.

The KIDS perform at state and county fairs, community concerts, fundraisers for non-profit organizations such as the Rotary, Lions, Kiwanis and other organizations, helping them to earn thousands of dollars for their organizations cause, and at the same time support Wisconsin’s performing arts.

The Kids from Wisconsin, to this day, maintains a large presence at the Wisconsin State Fair with performances twice daily on a main stage.
