Balloonacy at Tibbits Opera House

By Barry Kornhauser

It starts so simply: A red balloon drifts through the window of a solitary old man’s home. But then some serious silliness begins - with things fast becoming so magical and so blissfully fun, you barely notice that along the way you’ve learned something about the extraordinarily transformative power of play! Without a single spoken word, this sweet, inventive, and uplifting show - packed with plenty of playful shtick, along with touching reminders of the ups and downs of building a friendship – is a tender and laugh-filled delight for the little ones (and the big ones too)!
