About this Event
“Show Up, Kids!”
Written & Performed by Peter Michael Marino
Directed by Michole Biancosino
Music by Michael Andrew
For kids 3-10 and their guardians “Show Up, Kids!” is an interactive, critically-acclaimed, one-person comedy with music for kids and their grownups.
When the main act doesn’t show up, our hapless host Pete gets the audience to help them create a comical storytelling show on the spot - choosing everything from from plot to props, characters to costumes, and settings to sound in a one-of-a-kind, 50-minute laughfest.
