Teatro AmbulanteCarlitos and the Magic Garden is a traveling puppet show promoting healthy eating, currently under production by ArtsChange. It is an imaginative tale of a junk food craving little boy who discovers the benefits of gardening, friends and his grandma's chicken soup. The show dramatizes the benefits of eating home-cooked meals and fruits and vegetables instead of fast foods, soda and sweets. The show is crafted for children 3-8 but its artistry and social messaging will appeal and entertain all ages.


Carlitos and the Magic Garden is currently traveling to preschools, Head Start programs, CDCs, WIC centers, libraries and community centers in Richmond and Oakland. Please contact us at (510) 231-1348 if you are interested in having a performance at your site.
