This family stage musical is a hilarious and interactive combination of comedy, songs, slapstick and drama.
It's a magic day for Tina Talkington and her animals: she has cast a magic spell to make her stuffed animals talk! But when the spell makes Owl, Fox and Beaver spring to life, it also turns her little brother into a giant baby. And worse, Tina herself into a dolphin, stuck in a tree. How will the animals learn to work together and save Tina?
