FEBRUARY 9th SHOW SNOWED OUT!

Sorry to cancel this Saturday's "Monkey and the Mystery of the Snake" show at Arlington Center for the Arts! It sounds like Boston (and Arlington) will have so much snow that people won't be able to travel safely. So, hope you are home safe and warm, and not having to shovel too much!

Snakes are charming and mysterious, so it's no wonder that banquet preparations for the Year of the Snake have mysterious problems. Someone keeps sneaking in and eating the foods, and the decorations. Is it the Snake King? Or a cranky Monkey who wishes the banquet were for him? Join Margaret Moody of Galapagos Puppets for this lively episode of Journey to the West, told with traditional Taiwanese hand puppets and choreography.

Please stay and make a simple Chinese Zodiac puppet afterward. Try a little oo-long tea, too!

This program is supported in part by a grant form the Arlington Cultural Council, a local agency which is supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.
