As the audience enter the hall, the two performers dressed as caretaker characters act as ushers and welcome the children. Once everyone is seated the caretakers exit the performance area and the intro music plays.

The show starts with quiz show host, Johnnie Streetwise's grand entrance and his introduction of the not very streetwise contestant Joe Public. The audience are asked to play the role of the other contestant and help Joe to get streetwise. Using numbered juggling balls and a moving message screen Johnnie explains the 6 main points of the Green Cross Code.

Round 1 is a multiple choice round where Johnnie asks Joe and the audience about safe and dangerous locations to cross the road.

Round 2
is a lottery round where a volunteer is picked from the audience to assist. The numbered balls are juggled, simulating a lottery machine and then thrown one at a time into the lottery ball collector (bucket!) held by the volunteer. As each ball is caught Joe helps the audience to remember what each number represents in the Green Cross Code.

Round 3
is the highly interactive Road Sense/Nonsense round. Johnnie asks both Joe and the audience multiple choice questions about general road safety and the audience has to decide whether the answers are Road Sense or Nonsense.

Round 4
is the cycling round. Johnnie quizzes the children about aspects of cycling safety including helmets, reflective clothing, lights and general cycling proficiency. Then Joe and Johnnie go for a hilarious bike ride on unicycles with separate handle bar and front wheel sets.

Round 5 is the final round where the audience and performers go over what they have learnt. Johnnie and Joe pass six juggling clubs to simulate traffic whilst a volunteer and the audience are asked to remember the 6 main points of the Green Cross Code so that the volunteer can safely cross the road when the traffic (juggling) stops.

Of course the show just isn't over until Johnnie and Joe perform the Streetwise Road Safety Song and dance.
