The Prickly Pair know all too well that even in the sunniest desert, life can feel a little dull. These comically glum cacti are on the hunt for reasons to be cheerful. After catching a mild cactus mite infestation and an unfortunate mishap burst their favourite beach ball, Spike and Prickolas find themselves feeling rather deflated and in need of cheering up. 

Refusing to let life wilt them, these prickly pals are searching for small joys, armed with their positive cacti affirmations, arid humour, and spiky silliness. Along the way, they put down roots and let friendly conversations bloom, inviting everyone they meet to reflect on the little gratitudes that make life brighter. With each sprouted smile and joyous joke, Spike and Prickolas discover that even the driest of days can grow moments of joy. 

Blending comedic characters and meaningful conversational connection, The Prickly Pair offer a warm, gentle experience that leaves audiences of all ages smiling and reflecting on the everyday things that bring joy.
