The Nylon Zoo
This event is put together and packaged in such a way as to make it easy to load into a car and bring the zoo on a plane.
Part one: The audience stands in a line up outside the gated area ready to come in and take part in the Nylon Zoo. As they line up, the Nylon Zoo performer and her volunteers, sing songs (sometimes with puppets).

Costume Parades & Dances
We parade around the site and find an open space to do a group dance.

Interactive stories inside Inflatables
All the stories are highly interactive and unique . The themes are based on friendship and the environment/
This story inside is both interactive and educational, bringing awareness to our ecology and informing the participants about how the eco system is connected – the wetlands, oceans, rivers, streams, lakes, deltas and estuaries need to be preserved to protect our fish, wildlife and ourselves. Wetlands are much like ourkidneys, they filter the water in lakes, rivers, and streams, reduce pollution and prevent flooding.
The creator of the Zoo is Evelyn Roth, is a world renowned artist in both fabric art, wearable art and in visual and performance. Evelyn is the creator of these unique and colorful inflatable sculptures and costumes for parades. She is originally Canadian but she now resides in Maslin Beach Australia with her talented painter husband John Davis (evelynrothoz.com)
