The Backyardigans

"Your backyard friends, the Backyardigans!
Together in the backyard again,
In the place where we belong,
Where we'll prob'ly sing a song,
And we'll maybe dance along."





Another score on tickets for a live performance...this time we saw The Backyardigans: Tale of the Mighty Knights. With a theater full of kids holding their battery powered magic wands, cardboard shields, and eating cotton candy for a full 90 minutes...it was basically a long show with dancing adults looking for the lost egg. (Honestly, I did not even know it was a real episode until I googled it just now to link it to this entry.) Maybe if we have seen the episode prior to the performance, the show would have been more entertaining.








The boys did enjoy seeing the characters live from a distance and were quite amazed with the props and background changes. I think we enjoyed Laurie Berkner so much, this was a small disappointment. As I have described to others...would you rather go to a not so famous Broadway show or a Jimmy Buffet concert where you know all the songs? Sign me up as a Parrothead any day!
