In a newly-frightening world where so many of us are stuck in our homes doing what we can to slow the spread of coronavirus, some soap stars have decided to reflect on happier times — and also entertain us, which is exactly what General Hospital star Parry Shen has done with this flashback to childhood times.
Parry Shen: Quite A Performance
The actor took to Instagram to remind us of a happier time in his life, as well as the words and thoughts of some great men — including Muppet creator Jim Henson and Fred Rogers, known to so many as just Mr. Rogers.
Shen then took some Muppet Baby paper dolls and gave us his own rendition of their theme song, while also writing the following:

“I am & always will be, a by-product of Jim Henson + Fred Rogers — entertaining with humor & goofiness underlined with a foundation of kindness & creativity.
The most wonderful part of this all was when I was cutting these characters out because the SOUND of the scissors going through the card-stock brought me back to when Mr. Rogers did the same with construction paper — being able to make anything out of paper. Only now I do the same with a little help from Photoshop.
“Big thanks, to @hpmendoza for the help in making a fantastic instrumental track for me to sing to! Enjoy! “Imagination has no age” – Walt Disney. “We don’t stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” – George Bernard Shaw.”
