Puppet Showplace Theatre PRESENTS Dreamtime: Tales from Down Under by Barefoot Puppets
Puppet Showplace Theatre, 32 Station St, Brookline, MA | Get Directions »
$15.00
Emus, crocodiles and frogs -- oh my! Experience the magic of "The Land Down Under" in this performance inspired by Aboriginal folktales. Learn more about some truly unusual animals as a mother platypus tries to get her young one to sleep by sharing three stories from the Australian Dreamtime. In these "How and Why" tales, you'll learn how the emu became a flightless bird and why the platypus looks so strange. In the final story, you'll meet a giant, bloated, ocean-swallowing frog, and perhaps get invited onstage to help bring the water back! Recommended for ages 4 and up.
Showtimes:12/29/12 - 1pm & 3pm, 12/30/12 - 1pm & 3pm, and 12/31/12 - 10:30am & 1pm
