Hi, I'm Charles, I'm Eleven, and the show I got to see was Pip's Island
0:23
Pip's Island is controlled by a lighthouse, but the island is in trouble
0:28
because the evil Jules Volter and his army of moles have captured the lighthouse and kidnapped
0:34
its rightful leader, Ampyrs Watson. You must go on a journey with Pip and his friends Finn and
0:43
Pebbles through a series of journeys along which you will meet many different characters to use
0:49
five important skills to help defeat Jules Volter and save Ampyrs Watson and the island
0:57
But in the end, is the spirit of good more powerful than the spirit of evil
1:03
And can the island be saved? Pips Island is incredibly different from any other show you'll ever see
1:15
In most shows, you walk into the theater and sit down and watch the show happen on stage
1:21
In Pips Island, you get to be part of the show. Your guide, for me it was Beatrice Vandini, will lead you through several rooms or journeys that will help you save Pips Island
1:35
In most shows, you get to see the story. In this show, you get to be the story
1:41
My favorite character in Pip's Island was the Grumble Plum, a large creature that is
1:51
also the baker in the bakery you will visit along the way She speaks a made up language and is extremely fuzzy and giant In her humongous mouth you never know what you might find
2:09
There were a lot of cool effects during Pip's Island. There was a lot of haze and strobe lights, which helped make it more suspenseful
2:18
There was a lot of things coming down at you like snow and in one room bubbles
2:24
And in the final room, there was a multi-paneled video screen that brought a whole other dimension to Pipps Island
2:36
I felt very lucky after the show to be able to take a backstage tour of Pipps Island
2:43
It was really fun to be able to spend some more time in the rooms than the tour allows for
2:49
And I also got to hug the grumble plum, the giant creature from the bakery, and make snow angels in the snow room
3:01
I think kids would love Pipps Island. The fun spirit and the interactive parts of it all combine to make it a really great show for everyone
3:13
I would recommend it for ages 3 to 8, but really anyone with a bit of fun in their hearts can enjoy Pips Island
3:25
Adventurous. Because really, the whole experience is an adventure
