Honor the Year of the Snake -- Snow date show!

MONKEY AND THE MYSTERY OF THE SNAKE

Saturday, June 1 at 11 am

Arlington Center for the Arts

Someone keeps sneaking into the Banquet Hall and gobbling up decorations meant to honor the Year of the Snake. Could it be the mysterious Snake King? Or a cranky monkey who wishes the banquet were in his honor?

We missed the chance to welcome the Year of the Snake because of a big snowstorm in February. Come honor it now with Margaret Moody of Galapagos Puppets! Stay after the show for oolong tea and puppet-play.

Please note the NEW TIME for this show: 11 am 

For directions: www.acarts.org/directions.php

Hope to see you there!

Visit "The Kingdom of Riddles" with Sparky's Puppets on April 6

"The Kingdom of Riddles" by Sparky's Puppets
Saturday, April 6 at 2 pm

Arlington Center for the Arts theater

41 Foster Street, Arlington

Join the fun as Sparky’s Puppets perform “The Kingdom of Riddles” at the Arlington Center for the Arts. In this show, a king asks a knight to capture a unicorn for his queen.   In his quest, the knight will need the audience to help solve riddles posed by those he meets along the way --- a jester, a witch and a dragon.

Sparky Davis has been dramatizing favorite children’s stories for schools, libraries and festivals throughout New England for over 30 years.  Each of her shows features colorful hand puppets, lively humor and plenty of audience participation.


Come laugh with "The Kingdom of Riddles"; stay to enjoy puppet-making and some lemonade!
