The Ewoks and the Magic Sunberries

"The Ewoks and the Magic Sunberries," also referred to as "Ewoks on Ice," was a 1986 American ice show based on the animated television series Ewoks. It was a segment of the traveling Ice Capades variety show Bravo America: Bold-Bright-Beautiful, which was produced and directed by Figure Skating Hall of Fame inductee Robert Turk. The Ewoks skit was written by Anne Snyder, and it was split into two acts that spanned Bravo America intermission.

Billed for ages "3 to 93," the Ewoks segment featured musical numbers starring characters from the Ewoks cartoon, including Wicket, Princess Kneesaa, and the antagonistic Dulok King Gorneesh. "Ice Capades and Ewoks" souvenirs were available for purchase at the shows, and some items have become rare collectibles. In 2005, Star Wars Insider 83 ranked "The Ewoks and the Magic Sunberries" as the second-goofiest moment of the Star Wars Expanded Universe.
