PIP Says

This is a theatre performance filled with expressive movement, music and interaction. Through Koko’s journey, children experience the importance of taking responsibility for their choices. As Koko’s vivid imagination takes him beyond the forbidden river, children see how one’s actions can lead to both exciting and challenging consequences.
