2-4-1 Double The Fun | Pet’s Tale

Join Storyteller / Clown Adi Paxton in Double the Fun, a Fun-tastic family show in two parts. Share a puppet story or magical show and interact via captions.

In Pet’s Tale, a real shaggy dawg story, audiences help Pet to find a home. Along the way, they meet iZikwe, that is, a bushbaby, a snooty Giraffe and BD. Beware of the Snake in the Grass! The occasional isiZulu words are captioned.

Previously performed at the National, Splashy Fen and Hermanus’ Whale Festivals; as a one-woman show. It was first performed in 1994 and has appeared on the main program at the National Arts Festival (as a three hander), as well as at the International PuppenTheatretage, in Mistlebach Austria, in 2004 (as a two hander).

In 2014 the solo show was combined with Show 2: Cherry’s Magic Fun Show. Here you help this ditsy clown, with a lotta heart get into the act with hats, silly, magic tricks and balloons for more family fun.
