⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
This adorable open-air venue was perfectly covered from the elements, so we stayed cool and comfy while enjoying the fresh air. Then came Robyn Perkins, the marine biologist turned comedy superstar, who absolutely blew us away with her debut science-comedy-music-game show all about animals! Teaming up with the hilarious Andrew Silverwood, Robyn served up a show that was equal parts smart, silly, and downright hilarious. The whole audience—kids and adults alike—were laughing until our cheeks hurt. And let me tell you, our daughter was obsessed with the question-and-answer games that had everyone shouting and feeling like part of the action. It was such a clever way to keep everyone engaged and entertained! The show was a wild ride of fun facts, catchy tunes, and laugh-out-loud moments. The fun didn’t stop when the show ended! Afterward, the kids got to meet Robyn and Andrew plus we snagged some of Robyn’s original drawings as stickers and coasters—such a unique and adorable keepsake! This show is a must-see for anyone who loves to laugh, learn, and have an absolute blast. Robyn Perkins and her team have created something truly magical.
