Following capacity crowds and raves from NYC to Edinburgh to Hollywood, the interactive family comedy "Show Up, Kids!” makes its Brooklyn debut at The Rat NYC in DUMBO at 2:00 p.m. on Saturday afternoons from January 25-March 15. This semi-improvised musical show for kids 3-10 years old puts a wildly comedic twist on the traditional kids’ show. When the main attraction doesn’t show up, the host enlists the help of the kids (and their grownups) to control everything from plot to props, characters to costumes, and settings to sound in a one-of-a-kind, 45-minute laughfest. Written by Peter Michael Marino & the kids
Directed by Michole Biancosino & the kids
Featuring Denisse Estefany Mendoza
Music by Michael Andrew
