Gobo, Red, Mokey, Wembley, and Boober Fraggle discover the legend of the Celebration Stone–an ancient Fraggle treasure that has the power to bring everyone together for the greatest party of all time but was shattered and lost generations ago. As the Fraggles set off on an exhilarating, adventurous journey exploring exciting new caves within Fraggle Rock and even beyond, they discover magic that they never knew existed and learn to work together to unite the lost pieces of the magical artifact. Can the Fraggles succeed in their quest to bring the Celebration Stone back to Fraggle Rock so everyone can enjoy the most incredible party in Fraggle history? And along the way, will they find something even more memorable and heartfelt than they could have ever imagined?
Featuring gorgeous new walk-around versions of the Fraggles, puppet sized Doozers, an appearance from a giant Gorg, and exclusive new wondrous puppet creatures all from the acclaimed Jim Henson’s Creature Shop, along with fan-favorite songs and exciting visual effects, this all-new musical stage adventure welcomes audiences on a joyful, nostalgia-filled trip to Fraggle Rock. Filled with music, laughter and imagination, it’s an unforgettable live experience that will have Silly Creatures of all ages dancing in the aisles!
Written and directed by John Tartaglia (Avenue Q, Shrek the Musical, Stephen Schwartz’s The Secret Silk) the first-ever live show includes fantastic in-theater immersive special effects, audience interactivity, magical heartwarming moments, hilarious and endearing new characters, and much more to make this stage production perfect for families with young first-time theater goers, and for Fraggle Rock fans who remain young at heart.
