By: BWW News Desk Feb. 09, 2016
February 10-28
"HOTEL SAGUARO": Meet silly Sammy Saguaro, his wise Grandpa and the desert birds and animals that call the saguaro their home in this funny, award-winning show about this amazing cactus and its role here in the beautiful Sonoran Desert.
SPECIAL GUEST ARTIST PARASOL PUPPETS presents "LITTLE RED RIDING BUG": Little Red Riding Bug is on her way with a basket of goodies to visit her Granny, who flew a little too close to a bug light for comfort. But who should Little Red meet on her journey through the grass but the Big, Bad Frog! A cast of hand puppet bugs, including Dr. Pillbug, Little Red's Mama and a collection of critters on their way to a fancy dress bug ball illustrate a lively tale loosely based on the classic story. Original songs set to vintage honky tonk piano music will make you "buggy" with delight. For more information visit the artist's website at www.parasolpuppets.com. Friday, March 4 & Saturday, March 5
