They all dressed up in their PJS (or should I say woke up?) and headed out to play pillow fight with some unsuspecting people! This was a really great opportunity as the Roving Troupe will be doing a lot performing in and around the public. I think it's safe to say that they had an awesome time and it only wet their appetite for more public performances!! See below for some pictures!
