The Blanket Fort Club presents... Marshmallow Castles and Supersonic Parcels

This is an interactive, in-character storytelling workshop, where Snow and Ice, two imaginative characters stuck indoors on a rainy day with their friends, argue over what to create. In the end, they decide to build a blanket fort spaceship and embark on an adventure to an undiscovered planet. As the story unfolds, participants work together to construct the blanket fort, which becomes their vessel to launch into space.
