JACK AND THE BEANSTALK: A funny version of the traditional tale about a wicked (but not-so-bright) giant, a brave little boy, and, of course, an overgrown beanstalk - SEPTEMBER 17

THE BOOK OF APOLODOR: This story is about a little penguin from a great circus in Bucharest, a penguin who has a full time job as a tenor, entertainer, and a bit of an actor on the ice rink. His great journey back to Labrador takes him on an imaginary journey around the world, including a stop at Camelback Mountain! Presented by the internationally acclaimed Puck Puppet Theater from Romania. In English, for ages 7 and up. Based on a story and a poem written by Gellu Naum.
