The Plaza Theatre on Ponce de Leon is really offering some fun and unique entertainment. In addition to the Silver Scream Spookshow on the last Saturday of every month, they’ve added Mr. Greggy’s Silly Circus Show and Movie on the second Saturday of every month.
The afternoon begins with Mr. Greggy’s Silly Circus Show. The show is filled with magic, clowning, puppetry and some “serious fun.” Children from the audience are asked to help with the mayhem and the audience is invited to stick around afterwards and learn how to make balloon animals, perform a magic trick, or even how to juggle.
Following the Silly Circus Show is a family friendly film. On June 12, 2010 they’re showing “Hey There It’s Yogi Bear”, a G-rated 1964 Hanna/Barbera animated musical film. Starring the voices of Mel Blanc, Daws Butler and singer James Darren, this was Yogi Bear’s first theatrical feature film. All that’s old is new again. There is a new Yogi Bear live action/animated/3D movie is slated for release in December of 2010, starring the voices of Dan Aykroyd and Justin Timberlake.
We first me Mr. Greggy at Circus Camp and my daughter absolutely loves him (along with the rest of the staff). If your kids haven’t tried Circus Camp you are really missing something. My daughter started going two years ago when she was five and it is impressive how much they have taught her and how much confidence it has given her.
Here is video of her Circus Camp performance last Friday. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dUgkhi6SGNQ
