Twenty-five years in the past, we began making marionettes — a lead miner, for starters, which led to our first manufacturing, “The Lead Miner’s Daughter.” We can’t be repeating that manufacturing this yr — we’ll save that for subsequent yr and our fifteenth anniversary on the opera home. As a substitute, we are going to have a good time by performing certainly one of our favorites:
“The Magic Calendar”
11 a.m. and a pair of p.m. Sat. Sept. 1, 2018
(No efficiency on Sunday)*
2 p.m. Monday, Labor Day, Sept. 3
11 a.m. and a pair of p.m. Sat. Sept. 8
Witch Hazel will get a really massive, very mysterious bundle and might’t resist opening it early, regardless of being warned by Bossy the Cow. Inside is a larger-than-life calendar e book. Because the pages flip, Hazel is entertained by a yr’s value of puppet mates “singing and dancing and telling unhealthy jokes.”
*As a substitute of acting on the Sunday of Labor Day weekend, you will see us in Benton’s Labor Day parade and doing a puppet-making workshop within the park that afternoon. Be aware that earlier schedules had the efficiency time on Monday as 11 a.m.
