Go on an adventure "under the waves" with Smarty Pants as he brings the ocean to life with larger than life balloons, comedy, magic, and storytelling.

You'll meet a giant balloon shark, experiment with the pressure of the lower sea depths, and find out who the "real" king of the sea is. Suitable for all ages.
