This is going to be a kid's show right? The test audience should be small children. Forget about Tiki authenticity, it's all about the $$$ you're going to get on merchandising royalties for the plush toys. Little kids want cute, soft, and colorful. Remember Tiki wasn't defined as a style until after the fact. It was originally used as a marketing theme to get people into bars, restaurants, and motels. I'd focus on marketability first and then worry about the "art". Unless for you, art comes before commerce. :) BTW, I think kids will love this !! [ Edited by: JOHN-O 2010-01-13 18:39 ]
