SCHEDULE!
Find the detailed schedule below, but first a word about our host.
Frank Powers kicks off the energy with silly costumes and Toot Toot Cartooning, whipping up cartoon characters on the spot from kids’ suggestions. His Comic Strip Funshop creates a 3-panel comic strip from the characters. Best of all, he’ll introduce families to his alter-ego, Frik, a kid-size “muppet” with kid charisma to burn. It’s the Frik & Frank show!
GIGGLE MAGIC FROM CHILDREN’S LIBRARIANS
Frank’s will read from hilarious books chosen for us according to a giggle index: These are the picture books librarians say make the most kids laugh the hardest! YOU can find them all at GIGGLE MAGIC, https://bit.ly/35heaDC ! Frank will also have his Comic Bookmobile onsite!.
WATCH IN YOUR JAMMIES!
You can watch the kids’ show streaming LIVE at https://www.facebook.com/TucsonComedy/ In fact, grownups also can watch the other 18 hours of the 86,400 Second Comedy Telethon at home in their jammies.
You really should join the fun at the Hotel McCoy, though. The bar is open until midnight.
