Dad's Garage Brings Their Beloved Kid's Show Back to the Stage
By: A.A. Cristi Oct. 24, 2016
Dad's Garage kids show returns to the stage with "Foolio's Fun Club" - a show that will keep both children and adults laughing. This show uses G-rated Dad's Garage improv to create a new story every week. The kids make suggestions (just like a regular improv show), and they help shape the story as it moves along. "Foolio's Fun Club" features puppets, live actors in silly costumes, and lots of fun scenery. The kids get to tell jokes, interact with the performers, and laugh at the wacky stories. We've even tried to sneak in a few positive lessons into the show. Everything from table manners, to sharing, to being a good friend. "Foolio's Fun Club" provides positive, uplifting improv comedy for audiences of all ages.
Don't worry, parents, we've got you covered. This show is equally entertaining for the adults, and features jokes that (while they may not register with the kids) adults can chuckle at. And don't forget our bar! We've got Bloody Marys and Mimosas for the grown ups!
This show began as "Uncle Grandpa's Hoo-Dilly Storytime" at our original location in Inman Park. That show played for several years and made hundreds of kids laugh, and since then folks have been eager to see it return to the stage. Now that we've rebooted the show for our new home, we hope to see some of those original audiences back with kids of their own!
"Foolio's Fun Club" is approximately an hour long, and is meant for kids aged 2 and up.
