Puppet Showplace Theater

Puppet Showplace Theater (PST) will present 13 performances of Tanglewood Marionette’s “Hansel and Gretel”: 8 public ticketed performances, 1 pay what you will, and 4 school field trips. A supplementary marionette workshop will be offered prior to one of the performances to provide a hands-on opportunity to learn from the artists.

Founded in 1993 by Peter and Anne Schaefer, Tanglewood Marionettes is a nationally touring marionette company whose unique productions have been seen by hundreds of thousands of children and families across the country. The company has received two UNIMA awards, puppetry's highest honor. Tanglewood Marionettes believes above all that a performance is a communal experience, with connections established not only with the performers, but also between members of the audience themselves as they laugh together, gasp together, and cheer together when the good guys prevail
