I certainly didn't have "see a giant pink bear juggle" on my 2023 Bingo Card, yet here we are! 

'Yummy: The Kids Extravaganza' is the first kids show offering from the team at Yummy Productions who have been performing their show YUMMY at the Adelaide Fringe for years now. If you have seen the adults YUMMY show and wonder how of earth they have pulled off a kids show, don't worry! 'Yummy: The Kids Extravaganza' is sugary sweet, fun and inspiring for kids.

Barry Gumnut leads his friends through the show, as they perform their dreams of being a rodeo girl, a chef, a broadway star and a marine biologist. Each performer has a skill to show off ranging from hoops, to tap dance, juggling to trapeze - there are some fantastic circus skills on show during this show!

The kids in the audience are encouraged to follow their dreams and support their friends, despite the efforts of 'the gummy king' (the aforementioned giant pink bear) to tear them down. Friendship and kindness will prevail!!

This show is a lot of fun, with the kids clapping along and getting up to dance at multiple times throughout the performance. The music had us all bopping along and I'm always a fan of a kids show with a "message" for the kids to leave the kids thinking about.

We would recommend 'Yummy: The Kids Extravaganza" for kids aged 3 to 8 years old.
