Pip-Squeak: An Anti-Bullying Magic Show

Award-winning magician and comedian Tony Brent returns to The REP with a unique show safely addressing a prevalent issue in our children’s world today. Because of his small size as a child, Tony was bullied in the cafeteria, in the gymnasium, on the playground, and generally anywhere there were no adults present. Now using comedy, amazing magic tricks, juggling, and a coat-rack loaded with costumes, Tony gently and humorously teaches children how to cope with being bullied. In addition, children learn to recognize the signs of bullying and whether or not they too might be guilty of bullying.

From the Grammy-winning musician, this joyous new jazz musical is sure to become a holiday favorite! Eubie is the happiest elf in the North Pole, whose constant energy and exuberance wears others out.
