Petunia is a pink pony-tailed furry puppet, and it’s her first day of school. Unfortunately, she is being visited by the Anxiety Monster. With a combination of puppets and humans, the story unfolds. The Anxiety Monster and his Monsterettes are planting self-doubts and fears in Petunia when Mom steps in to show her how to deal with them. A few affirmations, deep breaths, and relaxation exercises, and Petunia finds herself on the school bus enjoying the beginning of a new adventure.

PETUNIA’S BIG DAY is full of original music, cute choreography, creative props, colorful characters, and lots of life lessons. Kids are going to love this production. In today’s anxiety-ridden atmosphere, adults could probably use a few of the tips too!
