"What a WONDERFUL experience!! We highly recommend it. We brought our 8 and 4 year old grandchildren who loved every minute of it. The shows were all great!

I have passed the sign many times and didn't give it a second thought, but after the reviews, I thought we would give it a try, and I'm soooo glad we did. It's small but we all had so much fun. This is a family run business, and they work their tails off. "
