Join us Tuesday, July 14 at 10 am as StoneLion Puppet Theatre presents: The Tiny Roar!

Stomp is a BIG dinosaur who feels because he has a big stomp he can use it. All the forest creatures don’t agree, as he crashes through the jungle. Add a little magic and poof- one day the tables are turned and he now has the tiniest roar- smaller than the dragonflies he used to try and stomp. A funny and sweet lesson about bullying and understanding that everyone is important – even the smallest roar.

Best for preschool through 5th grade & families. Free of charge.
