The PODI LIVE ACTION & PUPPET SHOW
Set on Dinosaur Island, where the mummy (Dion) & baby (Dinky) dinosaur live, pirate Captain Clam has found a treasure map. Together with his first mate, Smelly Pete, and the ship's cat, Nibbles, he is determined to find it. But the Captain and his crew are running out of time as the bubble volcano is about to erupt... Just as the pirates are setting off on their hunt for fortunes untold, Mummy Dinosaur stops them and tells them that Dinky, her baby, has wandered away, and she’s worried that he might be lost. Without hesitation the Pirates agree to postpone the search for the treasure and set about looking for Baby Dinky.
Will the Pirates find the baby dinosaur and still have time to get the treasure before the bubble volcano explodes? All will be revealed in this fast moving fun show about friendship from JW3 productions.
NEW FOR AUTUMN TERM 2023 | The PODI ACCEPTANCE SHOW & BOOK
It's crucial that we teach children to accept others from a young age. When young people are exposed to diverse cultures, religions, and lifestyles, they become more empathetic and understanding. This helps to create a kinder and more inclusive society where everyone is valued and respected. By teaching acceptance, we can also prevent prejudice and discrimination, which can have long-term negative effects on individuals and communities. When children learn to embrace diversity, they are more likely to grow up to be open-minded and tolerant adults. Ultimately, teaching acceptance is essential for building a better future for all.
The Pirates of Dinosaur Island (PODI) makes this life lesson easy to understand and most important, memorable.
The PODI LIVE ACTION & PUPPET SHOW PAGE
There's something truly magical about the power of puppets and live performers when it comes to entertaining children. The way a puppet can come to life and create a whole world of wonder right before a child's eyes is truly amazing. And when you add in the energy and excitement of a live performer, the result is a truly fantastic show that kids will remember for years to come.
Teaching children life lessons with fun experiences is a great way to help them learn and grow. It is the foundation on which the PODI brand is built. Children are more likely to retain and apply information to their daily lives by making learning enjoyable. PODI incorporates life lessons into acted storytelling, making books and performances more engaging and memorable.
