A Puppet Zoo Adventure!

A Puppet Zoo Adventure is a lively and engaging children’s puppet show designed for kids under 10, blending puppetry with ventriloquism for an interactive experience. The show centers around two main characters, Steph and Layla, who serve as the enthusiastic hosts and zoo keepers. They warmly welcome the children into their vibrant zoo, filled with charming puppet animals, each with their own quirky personalities.

However, the peaceful zoo adventure takes an unexpected twist when a mischievous Gremlin casts a spell on the sunshine, plunging the zoo into darkness. The once bright and happy environment becomes gloomy, and all the animal puppets, as well as Steph and Layla, become sad and disheartened. The only way to reverse the spell and restore light to the zoo is by creating enough joy and positive energy to break the Gremlin’s curse.

In this heartwarming and interactive show, the children become key participants. Steph and Layla call on the young audience to join in various activities, from singing cheerful songs to performing fun actions that help build up joy and happiness. Each child’s contribution is vital to lifting the spell and bringing back the sunshine, encouraging teamwork and positive thinking.

The show combines humour, light-hearted adventure, and problem-solving, making it an exciting and entertaining experience for young viewers. With colourful puppets, engaging characters, and a playful storyline, A Puppet Zoo Adventure teaches valuable lessons about kindness, cooperation, and the power of joy in overcoming challenges.
