There are wishes we wish for others to grant and those only we can make come true through hard work and perseverance. This multicultural show tells three folktales about wishing, using three different styles of puppetry. The stories are “The Knee-High Man,” “The Frog Prince,” and “Little Orphan Animal”.

This show will have kids squeaking with delight as they watch several folktales featuring these furry friends and “purr” along with some early rock tunes. Will the cat ever catch the mouse, or can these natural enemies ever be friends? Stories include “The Lion and the Mouse” (Aesop), “Why Siamese Cats Have a Kink in their Tales” (Thailand), and “Why Cats Chase Mice” (Myanmar)

Let’s take a trip to the beach in our imagination, and see the sea! This interactive puppet show is the perfect introduction to puppetry for very young children. Our puppeteer brings sea creatures into the audience for kids to name and meet up close. Lots of music with minimal script make this a very accessible show.
