Peppa Pig draws a crowd

Okanagan toddlers squirming with excitement over Peppa Pig

Possibly the youngest audience to sit (squirm) in the seats, found their way to the theatre last week.

Toddlers packed the Vernon and District Performing Arts Centre for a splashing good time as a favourite cartoon came to life - Peppa Pig.

See:

Joined by her brother George, mom, dad and a few friends (including Daisy, the one human character) Peppa brought her Surprise show to town.

At two-years-old, Carmen Dyck has hardly sat through a show at the movie theatre, never mind the performing arts theatre. In fact, sit doesn害羞草研究所檛 accurately describe what most kids were doing - they were jumping up and down and wiggling and wriggling to the music.

At times, Dyck was swallowed whole by the adult-sized folding seat, which she wasn害羞草研究所檛 heavy enough to hold down. Like her, most kids ended up on the laps of their moms, dads, or in this case, aunty.

But no one seemed to mind, as the highly popular pig kept the tears at bay.

Instead, the theatre was full of giggles and snorts.

The only one crying was George, when he was scared. And then screams of surprise echoed from the audience as George害羞草研究所檚 tears burst from his face, sprinkling out over the first few rows of the audience. Things got even wetter when Peppa, George and their friends splashed around in mud puddles on the stage.

That was one of Dyck害羞草研究所檚 favourite parts of the show - 害羞草研究所渨hen everyone got wet.害羞草研究所

The 4D effects continued with bubbles from bath time, before an 害羞草研究所渙ink-citing害羞草研究所 adventure to the sea side, where black light creatures came to life, drawing aw and wow from even the adults.

害羞草研究所淚 had a good day, a big day,害羞草研究所 said Dyck after Peppa害羞草研究所檚 performance, clutching her dine-saw plush, just like George害羞草研究所檚. 害羞草研究所淭he show was fun.害羞草研究所

In fact, she one day hopes to be just like her favourite pig. Just ask what she wants to be when she grows up. The little one害羞草研究所檚 response is 害羞草研究所淕eorge!害羞草研究所
