ABOUT THE ALBUM

Big World Audio Theatre proudly presents The Peculiar Tales of the S.S. Bungalow — an 80 minute seafaring audio narrative jam-packed with fun characters, sounds of adventure on the open sea, and 14 original foot-tapping music tracks.

This Parent’s Choice Award and Family Choice Award winning album is for kids, yes… but it’s also for all those who are secretly (or not so secretly) kids at heart.

Join Captain Sleepytime Greg and his crew of scalawags on their quest upon the Atlantic to the mysterious and faraway Lullaby Islands. Along the way they learn the importance of keeping a tidy ship, that adventures require a full nights sleep, that beagles are friendly if ravenous creatures, and that our differences can be what makes us special. It's a journey of friendship — of remembering old friends and making new ones.

So come along and join us on the maiden voyage of the S.S. Bungalow!
