Trainer for a Day: World of Wild Theater
Imagine running a show when all of your stars are birds!
Become a Trainer for a Day at the World of Wild Theater presented by Georgia Natural Gas, and see firsthand how training is used to care for and connect guests to the birds while participating in the Fantastic Flights presentation!
Work alongside the Ambassador Animals Team to experience how these feathered friends showcase their unique adaptations in these presentations and learn about the positive reinforcement training that ensures that all of the birds are participating voluntarily. This behind-the-scenes look at Fantastic Flights and its amazing participants will give you a greater appreciation for the term “bird brain” and the important relationships between the birds and their care team. Participants can expect to meet members of the Animal Care Team, meet an animal, learn about our positive reinforcement training and enrichment programs, and walk away with knowledge of how to save species. All participation in Keeper for a Day programs is voluntary for the animals.

Spivey Hall

Experience an afternoon of extraordinary artistry as Joyce DiDonato brings her
acclaimed No Prisoner Project to Spivey Hall, a bold and deeply personal exploration of resilience, identity and the courage to live authentically. Through a striking program that spans centuries and styles, three-time Grammy winner DiDonato invites audiences into music that confronts confinement—both literal and emotional—and ultimately celebrates freedom, transformation and hope. Set to music by Pulitzer Prize–winning composer Kevin Puts, the work weaves 24 poems by Emily Dickinson into a continuous musical journey also featuring genre-defying string trio Time for Three. Known worldwide for her commanding presence, vocal brilliance, and fearless artistic vision, DiDonato creates performances that are as thought-provoking as they are moving.
