Comparable to participatory film experiences like The Rocky Horror Picture Show, Heather Henson's Sing Alongs provide family-friendly interactions with the classic films of Heather's father, Jim Henson. The IBEX Puppetry Sing Along crew brings elements of the films to life for the audience via puppetry, kiting, and shadow acting.

The Muppet Movie follows Kermit the Frog as he embarks on a cross-country trip to Hollywood. Along the way, he meets many other misfit Muppets. They join Kermit to overcome danger, discover their true selves, and build a future of friendship together.

In this Sing Along, IBEX Puppetry leads an audience of cheering, singing fans to renew their Rainbow Connection with our fleecy friends who started it all. It's full of interactive surprises like bubbles, streamers, kites, confetti pops, and characters coming right out of the screen into the audience. Children and adults alike are urged to yell out famous lines, blow bubbles, dance in the aisles, and of course, sing along with the movies to forge new or renew connections to films from another generation.

Founded in 2000 by Creative Director Heather Henson, IBEX Puppetry is based in Central Florida, but maintains activities in Los Angeles, CA and New York, NY. IBEX Puppetry produces Heather Henson's original works, including: Environmental Spectacles, Sing Alongs and Education Initiatives. IBEX's original performances and outreach have been recognized with UNIMA Citations of Excellence as well as awards from festivals and organizations around the world.

Regardless of age, everyone in attendance must have a ticket. Bringing infants to any performance is prohibited.
