D.J. the Dalmatian is really excited. He’s going fishing with his dad. His big day is spoiled when a thunder-storm approaches. The change in the weather becomes a perfect opportunity for Dad to tell his son the story of Noah and his enormous floating zoo.AG00439_.GIF (7917 bytes)Noah and his animal friends in "Noah's Floating Zoo"

It’s a wonderful re-telling filled with lots of songs, special effects and a candy colored rainbow at the end. Highlights include the Four Raindrops — a delightful song performed under blacklight and featuring four singing raindrop puppets.ag00208_.gif (9002 bytes)

Barry and Bertha the Beavers help Noah build the giant ark as all of Noah’s animal friends come to help. The giant ark fills the stage and becomes a backdrop for a clever series of knock-knock jokes as animals pop their heads through the numerous portholes on the vessel.

Other memorable moments include the huge pair of elephants who play their horns in the title song, "Noah’s Got a Floating Zoo."

The entire audience gets to participate in the parade of the animals. Dad grabs a baton and marches through the audience, leading children in the parade. Each child in the audience carries an animal drawing or coloring page created before the show begins.Noah in Rainbow Puppets "Noah's Floating Zoo"

The story is based on the Old Testament tale of God’s care for Noah and his family. The father - son element allows the story to be told in a way that’s compelling for children, yet entertaining for adults.

The new musical score is full of hand-clapping, toe stomping melodies that you’ll remember long after the performance is over.

  Hear "The Animal Parade"  - Tim Tharrington, playing Dad, sings of all the animals that march aboard the ark.

  Hear "Noah's Got A Floating Zoo" as Frank Mailander and friends make fun of Noah's big project.

Noah’s Floating Zoo is approximately 40 minutes long. It can be performed indoors on our full sized stage. The stage is eight feet high, sixteen feet long, ten feet deep. An additional eight feet is required in front of the stage for the full sized costumed character to interact with the puppets.AG00501_.GIF (12145 bytes)

The program features fog, strobe, black light, and bubble effects. For optimum results it should be performed in a room that can be completely darkened.
