Here is a story about the performance you will see. The performance is called WiggleGiggle.
There are three performers in the performance. Cathy Stephen Doireann (Dur-un)
During the performance, they are going to make strange movements and sounds with their mouths. They are also going to play with chairs.
During the show, Doireann and Stephen will play a trick on Cathy and she will get upset. But they will be sorry and everyone will be happy playing again. Later, Stephen will pretend to be a big monster and they will play with him.
Then, they are going to make strange sounds. These sounds will start to stick together to become words. Like wiggle. And giggle. And some funny made-up words like tiggle and maggle. They start to play with rhymes and actions. Clap. Flap. Zap. They will start to make up a rhyme: Friends are like magnets. They can t be pulled apart. They will make up a game to go with this where they will stick together like magnets.
Later, Stephen will pretend to grow big again and they will make up a rhyme about being the biggest person in the world and the different things they would do. And they will play a game of giant sneezing. But they all will get annoyed with each other and go and sit on their own. Stephen will make up more of their rhyme: Friends are like magnets. They can t be pulled apart. Their brains are made of silly string that starts inside their hearts.
They will play a game with invisible silly string and will make friends again. They will make a rhyme about being the smallest person in the world and all the things they would do.
Stephen and Cathy will start to leave Doireann out and pick on her and it will make her very unhappy. Cathy and Stephen will be sorry that they have hurt Doireann and will try to say sorry.
They will remind her of all the fun games they have played together and the special rhyme that they have about being friends that they made up together. She will see they are sorry and will forgive them. They will play one last game which has lots of the bits of all the other games put together.
At the end of the show there will be clapping. People clap to tell the actors they enjoyed the show.
