Taking children to watch performances is gradually becoming an important part of parent-child activities. A good children's play not only provides a sensory experience but also helps children better understand the world. What exciting shows are playing this weekend? Let's take a look!
This play tells the story of Liangliang, the "second-generation scientist," who embarks on a grand adventure with his pet Longzai and the robot Yuan Xiaoyuan to find the most powerful chip in the world for his self-made robot Ranweiwei. They face challenges like weightlessness, meteor strikes, rescuing Longzai, battling the omnipotent Beidou Brothers, remotely saving patients on Earth, and fighting sharks to protect clownfish. In the end, they find the Chinese chip representing "Wisdom" "Benevolence" and "Love" and understand the true essence of technological development. Liangliang's inner growth is also gradually revealed.
The play integrates various art forms, including music, dance, and puppetry, making the whole work rich and colorful. The combination of human and puppet manipulation in the robots skillfully blends human flexibility with puppet precision, presenting a unique artistic effect. The "shoulder-back puppet" representation of the Beidou satellite makes the audience feel like they are in the vast universe, experiencing the grandeur and mystery of space. Additionally, the puppet turtle controlled by lever principles is vivid and lifelike, while the long iron branch puppet vividly shows the puppet walking, leaping, and performing 360-degree flips in space, providing the audience with an immersive experience as if they were in space and deep sea.
Showtime: June 15, 10:30/14:00

Uncle Mouse Wakes Up Late
The children's play is adapted from the first children's literature work by the famous Beijing writer Ye Guangqin. In the Summer Palace in Beijing, time seems as tranquil as the waters of Kunming Lake, with only a playful rhyme creating a ripple.
In the summer, a girl named "Mouse Yaya" is sent to the Summer Palace by her father to live with her elder brother, who is 20 years older. In this spiritual place, Yaya's world suddenly becomes rich and vivid, with the omnipresent Mr. Mouse, the Turtle Prime Minister in disguise, and the vengeful Dragon King of the Bitter Sea. However, these magical creatures are invisible to adults. How will the adults in the Summer Palace view this quirky little girl? They protect and nurture this wildflower with care and tolerance, writing an unforgettable story of "growing up" together.

Ultraman Peak: Galaxy Miracle
The Baltan aliens, old rivals of the Land of Light, have fought many battles against the Ultramen and always lost. Due to continuous environmental pollution by humans, the monsters' combat abilities have increased, making them stronger. This time, the Baltan aliens target Earth, disappointed by its poor ecological environment, and decide to "purify" Earth before officially invading.
Some fight for peace, while others lose their sense of justice due to emotions. How much pain does a warrior need to endure to grow? What sorrow lies behind great power? All answers can be found in the play...
The performance breaks the barriers of dimensions and space, condenses the essence of battles, and upgrades the combat mode. Whether it's one-on-one duels or group battles, the heroes are ready to present more exciting and intense fight combinations. Watching familiar faces appear on stage, the audience can instantly become the story's protagonists, feeling as if they are participating in the battle themselves.
