SHOW/PERFORMANCE
Fairy Poppilina arrives in fairy splendor to greet each child with a fairy name [human names sting her lips!] and to magically remove any jitterbugs in an alliterative jitterbug scoop. She then explains via storytelling and her own specially written song [performed on guitar] how she ended up on earth.
The fairytale Rapunzel [rewritten in a rhymed version] is performed with a host of props and puppets as well as her own written songs interspersed. Her range of voice is excellent not to mention her comical angle to this fairytale. Following the performance, children are invited to make a fairy potion to draw on emotions featured in the fairytale. A special craft activity is then conducted [take home Rapunzel dolls or witch dolls].
There is more fairy dancing, limbo-ing before the farewell rainbow is brought out and children are invited to gather underneath it as Fairy Poppilina sings and tapdances. Other fairytales are also available - The Princess and the Pea, The Frog Prince, Jack and the Beanstalk Approximately 1 hour duration FAIRY
