We have found that music and laughter is a healing balm that soothes and mends many broken hearts! Our various shows, which include music, puppets, clowns and games very often help children, elderly and people with mental health disabilities forget about the pain they have suffered. The message contained therein gives them courage to face any present and future problems.
Our “clown therapy” visitations at various institutions like hospitals and centers for the disabled and elderly provide a laugh and friendship helping them forget their surroundings and problems for some time of meaningful entertainment.
One of the latest additions to the smile therapy project was Tony and Friends Show, entertaining young and old with ventriloquism, magic tricks, games and music. You can see the 10 years of its activities on Facebook at: Tony and Friends Show
