A UNIQUE, ORIGINAL SHOW
Everyone knows about the Olympics.

What would it be like if animals had their own Olympics?

Audiences learn important values and character-building lessons as they cheer for:

  • Kittens in yarn-ball scrimmages

  • Squirrels in nut-burying championships

  • Orangutans in banana toss finals

Sound like fun? You bet! This action packed production was originally developed for the Olympic Village of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta!

CHARACTER BUILDING / VALUES EDUCATION ENHANCEMENT
The animal characters portray examples of teamwork, self-determination, good sportsmanship, respect for others, good attitude, conflict resolution and more as they compete in hilarious, original sports activities

MULTIPLE STYLES OF PUPPETS USED
Three different styles of puppets: Hand, Hand-and-Rod (Muppet style), and Rod Puppet. An informative description is given of each style as a post-show demonstration.

AN AMAZING, AUDIENCE INTERACTIVE PRESENTATION
Not just a "sit and watch" show, young audiences participate with special "Animalympic" cheers and even do calisthenics with squirrels! Grownups will be delighted!
