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, squirrels, and monkeys competing in yarn-ball scrimmages, banana toss finals,
nut-burying championships and more in this action packed production! Originally developed
for the Olympic Village of the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. "The human Olympics were
never this much fun!"
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! Teachers will be delighted!
