User reviews
- We love it so much! My daughter laughed all the time ❤️
- The show was charming. I wasn't expecting our 1-year-old daughter to have her attention held the entire time, but the show did just that. Beautiful puppets. Fun energy to the performers. Glad we went.
- Very well done! My daughter loved “I am a good artist!” I loved Hungry caterpillar. House Staff were helpful and kind.
- Just amazing!
- The show was great. It was a little problematic that you had to use cash for a lap child.
