Plot
Barney was a ubiquitous figure in many of our childhoods, then he disappeared into the shadows, left misunderstood… We’re excited to explore this compelling modern-day hero and see if his message of ‘I love you, you love me’ can stand the test of time.

Cast

 * Barney (Voice: Bob West, Costume: Patrick Mcalister / Rick Starkweather) - A purple and green Tyrannosaurs Rex in stuffed animal likeness, who came to life through Felicity's imagination.


 * Baby Bop (Voice: Julie Johnson, Costume: Jennifer Barlean / Matthew N. Myers) - A green Triceratops who is currently 3 years old. She wears a pink bow and pink ballet slippers and carries a yellow security blanket and is also the younger sister of BJ.


 * BJ (Voice: Patty Wirtz, Costume: Jerad Harris / Dave Kendall) - A seven-year-old yellow Protoceratops. He is the older brother of Baby Bop, whom he frequently calls "Sissy" and occasionally calls by her name.


 * Thea Eddy as Felicity Larmer - A 4-year-old girl who lived most of her life in an orphanage until at the age of four and is not able to make any friends. Her only companion is a toy plush  dinosaur whose purple and green with big spots and yellow toes named Barney. After she got adopted by her new family, she still felt like an outsider.

Her older brother, Aiden, and sister, Mia, don't pay any attention to her as they're busy with their activities (her older sister with her boyfriend and her older brother with sports) and her new parents were too busy with work to notice her.

It seems like the love and imagination had completely disappeared from the family, except from Felicity.

On her first night in her new home, she made a wish on a shooting star for a friend that would always stay with her until the end.

That's where Barney comes in.

She wears a pink shirt with a light pink collar and linings on the sleeve and pink buttons, a white skirt with blue polka dots and a light green button in the middle, dark beige socks, yellow shoes with pale orange bottoms, a dark red hair bow on her hair.


 * Ella Anderson as Mia - An average teenager who is 17 years old. She wears white crop-top like shirt, navy blue shorts, grey socks, and lavender and white Van's shoes. She also has hot pink eye liner, red lipstick, purple earrings, and has a nose ring. Covered up is a purple butterfly tattoo with two blue spots on the top of its wings. She's into a few things: her boyfriend Jared, her phone, social media, shopping, and her friends. Other than that, she doesn't care about anyone or anything else seeing that she's self-centered. She's always sneaking off on dates with her friends or boyfriend (much to her parents dismay) and takes so much time into doing her make up in order to keep up her reputation as one of the popular girls in school. She also loves going to the mall to shop till she drops. At sixteen, she got a nose ring and as a pre-graduation present for herself, she got a butterfly tattoo on her right shoulder without her parents permission and has to hide it order to not get grounded.

11 years old and is into tons of sports. His room is covered in sports trophies that he won in the past and with posters of sports heroes he admires. Every other weekend, he has sporting events and is known to break a window while playing in the backyard. Sometimes, when he comes home from school, he's either covered in dirt or banged up after a football game and is the captain of all the sports teams at his school. Aside from sports, he's also a video game master master and spends his free time playing video games.
