All tickets must be purchased in advance About Robbo: Robb Zelonky, also known as ROBBO, is one of the most sought after children's performers in America. A John Lennon Songwriting Award Winner and a Parents Choice Gold Award winner for his five children's CDs, all of which are on Itunes, 'ROBBO' has performed in over 38 states. His resume includes his having written for Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen, co-headlining with folk legend Arlo Guthrie, and performing three times at the White House in Washington DC for the annual Easter Egg Hunt. The words 'filled with fun' aren't an overstatement when talking about a ROBBO show. Dads join him on stage for a Booku Tooku dance. Moms and daughters join him for a tribute to the good old days of Bubbe’s Chicken Soup (all, of course, by wearing giant chicken wings and chicken heads) and kids have been seen soaring over the stage as the characters Blanket Kid and Mitzvah Man. And for dessert, you must join him in the Milk and Cookie Rap, where kids don the milk and cookie costumes and rap with pride! ROBBO's energy and love of both people and performance bring something that is quite unique to the world of children's entertainment. And that is, a kid’s singer who is respected and beloved for his ability to appeal to EVERY person in the audience, no matter their age! read less
