Penguins On Parade Now Entertaining at Chimelong's Penguin Hotel

Now appearing in the Ice Palace Theater -- it's PENGUINS ON PARADE!

The two 8 1/2 minute happy, flipper-flappin', light-hearted musical revues are sure to delight and entertain people of all ages! The show is performed by 16 life-size animatronic penguins on a fanciful stage of sparkling, glistening ice nestled in the corner of the Emperor Penguin restaurant in Chimelong’s all new Penguin Hotel. The entire show was conceived, designed, built and installed by Sally Corporation of Jacksonville, Florida USA.

The featured penguin characters hail from many faraway lands. Straight from Antarctica there is MC Peng, our emperor penguin master of ceremonies; Miss Isabelle, the lovely, silver-voiced ingénue is from New Zealand; Madame Wobbles, the grand diva gentoo penguin, and her partner Sir Auk, a bird-brained, pompous baritone macaroni penguin, are both from the Falkland Islands; and last but not least is Little Blue, a cute, young, energetic and ambitious little blue penguin is from Australia… and he wants to be a star!

These, and many other penguins in this talented cast of showbiz birds, sing and dance to originally composed music and lyrics featuring such songs as the title hit It's Perfect To Be A Penguin and the deliriously catchy audience participation number The Penguin Shuffle.

Each penguin wears a custom designed and constructed costume specially made for this production.

“After completing the "White Tiger Mountain" show for Chimelong Paradise we were asked to create another show for the new Penguin Hotel at the award winning Ocean Kingdom Resort. We worked with the talented team of designers at Bruce Robinson and Associates to create the ice castle setting and compose the production. After writing and producing all soundtracks, the entire production was translated into Mandarin and talent was brought in from around the Guangzhou area to bring the appropriate personalities to our characters,” said John Wood, CEO of Sally Corporation.  “We love it when our customers keep coming back for more of Sally's magic. We look forward to doing even greater things for them in the years to come.”

Throughout the two shows, whimsical CGI video accompanies the musical sequences with cartoon penguins and humorous visuals, and is shown via a large monitor encased in the ice center stage. In each of the two productions three sets of penguins sing wonderful songs based upon the country of their origin. All of this is brought to exciting life by a dazzling theatrical light show which enhances the moods and atmospheres of the various musical numbers.

In addition to the main two shows there are also five fabulous mini-shows -- each no longer than 1 1/2 minutes -- which are performed daily.

And there's still another special treat! When the other shows aren't running, a guest may place his or her hand in a handprint on the ice stage and start a special encore performance of the very popular -- and very memorable -- Penguin Shuffle!

So now -- ladies and gentlemen -- boys and girls -- put your flippers together and let's hear it for Penguins On Parade! It's SHOWTIME!
