The Ivoryton Playhouse Brings Back Children's Shows for Summer, 7/12

The Ivoryton Playhouse continues the tradition of Friday morning children's shows this summer with some familiar stories and some new.

SAMMY & THE MAGICAL SANDBOX AND THE WIZARD OF WALLABY WALLOW - July 12

Presented by Queen Bee Puppetry, Devora Reiss takes us on a magical journey with her bright and cheerful puppets that are sure to make you smile!

Allynn Gooen's GOOWIN'S BALLOOWINS - July 19

Enjoy a truly unique performance by madcap balloon artist Allynn Gooen, who will fill the stage with extraordinary balloon creations as he leads the story of SNOW WHITE AND THE EIGHT DWARFS, THE WIZARD OF OZ, THE STORY OF PURIM, (or any of a large variety of stories) in which children from the audience will star. Traditionally, clowns and magicians twist balloons into creatures for kids, but not Allynn Gooen. He uses balloons to turn the kids into creatures! GOOWIN'S BALLOOWINS will capture the imagination of children and adults alike.

Casey Carle's BUBBLEMANIA - July 26

Casey Carle performs tricky undulations, manipulations and juggling with bubbles. An extremely unique program combining high energy entertainment with artistic achievement, BUBBLEMANIA is loaded with visual comedy, quick wit, big band swing music and the untamed, often unbelievable qualities and beauty of spherical liquids. Casey's creations grow from intricate and imaginative bubble artforms to "trapping" people inside bubbles! This is a bubble show to keep the 5 to 75 year-olds mesmerized.

Ivoryton Playhouse Intern Company presents A LITTLE BIT OF MAGIC - Aug 16

This charming play touches upon how special we are. Do-Nothing Dale, a little picked-upon wizard, wants to know what her little bit of magic is. On her journey to find out, she meets people like the laughing Coco the Clown and the singing Marilyn Melody, and she finds that she's just as special as everyone else in the world. Bright musical numbers add sparkle to the story.

All performances are at 11am. Tickets are $12 and are available by calling The Playhouse box office at 860-767-7318 or by visiting our website at www.ivorytonplayhouse.org. Book early to avoid disappointment. (Group rates are available by calling the box office for information.) The Playhouse is located at 103 Main Street in Ivoryton.
