25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee preview at YoYo Joe's

Thanks to our friends at Bootless Artworks, YoYo Joe's will be hosting a special preview of their upcoming show 'The 25th Annual Putnam Country Spelling Bee' on Saturday, September 11th at 11 am. They'll have a real live spelling bee right in YoYo Joe's and you can win tickets to the show!
Bootless Artworks is a non-profit arts organization located right here in Delaware. They're moving into their new digs in New Castle - at the location of the historic Bellanca airplane hanger. 
They were kind enough to let us host a preview performance of the performance of The Velveteen Rabbit last winter, and they were awesome! 
Tickets for their performances go on sale tomorrow. They warn that there is some mature language involved in the show, but say they'll use alternative words for the matinee shows. 
The shows will take place at the Reach Academy for Girls in Claymont. To buy tickets for the shows, click here.

Weeeeee're Going Green!!

A couple months back, I boasted about our role in the production of the musical "It's Not Mean to be Green," which made it's world debut at the duPont Theater. We are proud to hear that the soundtrack to the musical won the prestigious New York Book Festival Award for the "Audio, Spoken Word" category! Congrats to our friend Jamie Kleman and to the cast and crew of the wonderful play. Oh, by the way, the first store to carry the soundtrack? YoYo Joe's Toys & Fun, of course! We have the soundtrack playing in our store. Check out our mini "It's Not Mean to be Green" section - where we have the soundtrack, T-Shirts, Book Carriers and the book itself!
