‘Pico and the Golden Lagoon’
Theatre - performance - live music - puppetry - storytelling
Sally Miller and Jesse Hamilton enchant audiences with their blend of masterful puppetry, storytelling, live music, and a deep love for our planet. Each show is an episode of Pico’s adventures, crafted to both entertain and open young minds to ecological and environmental issues, innovations, and ideas.
Pico and the Golden Lagoon chronicles Pico’s journey as she traverses the globe in her yellow biplane. Stranded on an island after running out of fuel, Pico meets David, a passionate naturalist, and Lou, a friendly dragon who lives by the shimmering lagoon. Will Lou help Pico solve her fuel dilemma? The show highlights Pico's courage, the importance of forging new relationships, and the wonders of the natural world.
Sally and Jesse established the company in 2016, after performing together since 2002. Jesse’s extensive knowledge of mechanics and building techniques greatly informs their production of puppets, and Sally’s skill as a physical performer brings them to vibrant life, enthralling audiences and sparking curiosity and joy among young children and adults alike.
