(Adi Paxton)
Rhumbelow
Theatre in Umbilo and at Tina’s in Kloof offer youngster’s holiday
entertainment with two different shows each day: Cherry’s Dotty Fun Show and Seaside
Suzy
Join Adi
Paxton aka Cherry the Magical Clown in her Dotty Fun Show. Cherry is seeing
spots and needs the audience to help her sort the dots, spots or blotches and
to un-muddle her colours. Interactive and playful with a little learning along
with magic, juggling and an Abraca zebra, too:
Ditsy as
she is Cherry also attempts feats such as plate spinning and poi. Find out if
she can get them right and help her along, too. Was that a book, a picture or
an invisible pup? Come along and find out. Perhaps you can change the show with
a word, or a wave or a turn onstage …Who knows?. Volunteers can go home with a
member of her popular balloon zoo. This is a show for all ages to enjoy from 3
to 103!
This
will be followed by Face Painting and colouring in the pictures on Cherry’s
Magic Colouring in book (you get to take it home). What better way to keep your
kids entertained this holiday season? Join Cherry and her friends for a mad cap
morning of Magical Fun.
