What's the Story?
INTERRUPTING CHICKEN allows viewers to join Piper, a little red chicken, as she rewrites classic fairy tales, famous mythological stories, and new original tales. Piper is always bursting at the seams during story time at home and in school -- wanting to make unique changes to the stories she hears. From Hercules to Humpty Dumpty, no story is too big or small for Piper to leave her imaginative mark on it. Piper is so engaged in the stories she tells that she eventually jumps into the action to have fun, memorable adventures with the characters.
Is It Any Good?
Viewers will want to leap right into the stories along with Piper when watching this charming show. Interrupting Chicken is a fun reminder of the power of imagination and the possibilities of creative writing and storytelling. The show sparks inspiration for originality and uniqueness. Piper's unpredictable story additions and adaptions make for an engaging viewing experience. This is a great addition to the slate of shows for children and families on Apple TV+.
