Jumbo Kids Theatre, a local arts group active in half-mask puppet theatre, will stage its latest production, ˇ§Thatˇ¦s What Friends Are Forˇ¨, in October and November. The play looks at the relationship between parents, kids and their friends.

When he makes up his mind to solve this problem, he finds out that his best friends are actually his parents.
