Why should we come see Kapow-i GoGo?: As we get older it gets harder and harder to retain a sense of pure optimism, the kind of optimism we would be reminded of when we scrambled to get in front of our favorite cartoon show when we were kids. As we inevitably watched our hero, on shows like "Hey Arnold!" or "Sailor Moon", overcome their bullies in school or save the world from an evil monster or learn the powerful lesson of forgiveness our favorite shows helped us arm ourselves emotionally for the punches that life would throw. So here we are, as adults, still looking for ways to arm ourselves emotionally because life it truly pretty effing tough. But life is also pretty effing great. Kapowi-GoGo! reminds us of the power in #believing in yourself and fighting for what you #believe in with everything that you've got. This is the kind of optimism that will ultimately save the world. You'll laugh (definitely), you'll cry (maybe, probably) and you'll fall in love with a whole new cast of live action cartoon characters who are bringing every classic cartoon genre into play. Come join us. The fate of the world depends on it!
