The Cardboard Kids present: Asteroids, goblins, extinction, oh my! This space opera puppet show tells the story of Squish and Twiddles, a couple of Dirtsiders whose planet got blown up. Now they’re foraging for new digs, and dirt where they can do a little gardening.
This hour-long show features colorful cardboard characters, shadow puppets, massive masks, and all-original music. Quirky features include:
– Sassy party worms
– Goblin boy bands
– Crocodile deities
– & grumpy old rocks!
Don’t miss this mythical tale of cosmic outsiders in search of home.
