Brighton Festival 2018 PREVIEW: Penguins
ROY AND SILO are just like other penguin pairs at Central Park Zoo – they walk, swim and dance together. But Roy and Silo are both boys, so when the zookeeper finds them trying to hatch a stone, he thinks there may be a chance for them to become parents for real.
Penguins – A delightful show for ages 3+ based on a true story that touched hearts worldwide.
