What a wonderful old-school event to take your kids to! I have a 4 year old and a 3 year old who just loved it! (Boy and Girl). The staff is extremely courteous and super-friendly. I am going to be sharing this with the schools as it was such a great place.
Parking is free and behind the theatre. Refreshments served afterward with an opportunity for some great pics in the theatre. We have our Christmas card photo!


What a treat. I can't think of anything else like this in Los Angeles. This is the 2nd Bob Baker show I've seen, and although I don't have kids, I love everything about the show. And the kids in attendance looked positively enthralled.


This is a "low tech" experience...except for the sound which is pre-recorded voice and music. For what it is I thought it was very enjoyable and well done. I especially liked the puppett who sang, "I Want A Hippotamus For Christmas." Kids will LOVE the show...and their parents and/or adults will like it also. Worth the time and expense. Plus, you get "free" ice cream after the show!!! What else can you ask for? :o)
