Inside Scoop: Pip's Island

Sometimes a show for kids hits all the right notes: good concept (check); cool actors (check); interaction (check); fun music (check, check, check). But once in a very blue—probably cerulean or cobalt—moon comes a production aimed at children that offers all of the above and umpteen more check marks...check marks that let loose 21st-century pop culture goodies (graphic novels, web series, apps, video games, etc.) and toss in live actors, a propulsive storyline, and creative problem solving for an all-immersive theatrical experience.
