TAPAC Children's School Holiday Show - Pirate Popsicle and the Bubble Dragon!
Pirate Popsicle has big dreams to become the most fearsome pirate to ever sail the seven seas. Being small is no obstacle when you have BIG confidence and a special treasure map with ‘X’ marking the spot.
Adventures come in many shapes, sizes and surprises - and Pirate Popsicle is determined to experience them all. From jumping fish to singing mermaids, and a Dragon that has lost his flame, set sail with brave Pirate Popsicle these school holidays and escape into a feel good, fun filled show for the whole family.
Full of physical comedy, musical mayhem and adventures galore, this theatrical production will delight youngsters and their grown ups alike!
Join the team that brought you "The Gingerbread Man”, "The Hare and the Tortoise", and "Three Billy Goats Gruff" for a stage adventure that will keep toes-tapping and ribs tickled these school holidays!
Shows are on 10:30am and 12:30pm daily, 27th September - 6th October. Grab your tickets here: www.iticket.co.nz...
