Giant Royal Thunderbelly pumpkins, weighing over five hundred pounds, carry the children to the ogre's castle.

In a dramatic finale, the Dancing Pumpkin and his friends succeed in foiling Finkgrinder's plans. Packed with adventure, thrills, and unforgettable characters, this award-winning production will entertain the entire family!
