2012 Entertainment
to be loaded up around April/May.

Last Year's 2011 Entertainment below:

The Gigglies are accomplished on an assortment of instruments. For the Fringe they singing their songs in a tent and later down the coast and around the place in halls.

If one was a dreary old adult, one would say they are nice young people with jolly songs. If, however, you are Ruby, aged three, they are edge-of-the-seat, dance-on-the-grass wonderful and they absolutely hit the mark. The Advertiser's mini critic declared this gentle, unpretentious kiddy presentation a total joy.

**** four stars

Presented by Musical Child. An exciting, interactive show full of songs, games and stories about fishing, dolphins, ships, storms and pirates.

Captain Castanet and her crew will teach the landlubbers how to behave on board the pirate ship and spot the dolphins. At last, a musical designed to delight and engage toddlers and pre-schoolers. In an interactive format with the performers close to the audience, the children enjoy watching and performing songs and games, playing instruments with the pirates and acting as characters in the show.

On board the pirate ship, our funny, appealing characters will teach the “landlubbers” how to walk and talk like pirates, spot dolphins, name the parts of the ship, fish from the deck and stand on board in a storm.

Features the one man band,
balloons, magic, puppetry & buffoonery.

With original songs, join-in action & puppets. Our wonderful peculiar platypuses become familiar friends in this delightful tale.

Themes: Australian animals, care of the environment, Aboriginal legends & Family values.

Professor Blubber is the South Australian Whale Centre's very own resident Whale Specialist. His role at the Centre is to monitor whales across the Encounter Coast and to help students learn about whales and the marine environment.

Professor Blubber has lots of friends who help him during his programs as he can be quite forgetful and often counts on the students to help him too.

His favourite activity is researching and teaching everyone about Southern Right whales which he does through fun water based science experiments.

Professor Blubber has a collection models, which students can use to see how whales spout water... He especially likes playing with these and getting everyone wet!

Professor Blubber will be putting on a special show for all the children at the WhaleTime PlayTime festival in July, so make sure you come along and join in the fun.

Travelling around Adelaide with a bunch of puppets is all in a day’s work, just ask McDonald’s Camp Quality Puppets SA Coordinator, Pat Haynes.

The almost life-size puppets educate primary school students about childhood cancer and teach acceptance and empathy.

It is appropriate for all schools that promote a child’s contribution to a caring society.
