Fiddlesticks
	Imagine a violin with legs. A violin with one foot bare, one in a boot and tuning keys for toes. A violin with eyes that follow you around the room, a fingerboard that curls above its head and a smile as wide as its body. Now open your eyes and meet Fiddlesticks, the star of a show of the same name from Garlic Theatre.
Fiddlesticks is the playful spirit of a violin who breaks free from his strings and journeys into a world of musical fantasy in search of the beautiful Violinka.
	During his quest, puppets made from musical instruments spring to life, birds fly out from musical scores a horse emerges from the bow of a violin and the music teacher Metronomous tries in vain to impose order.
