PUPPETSBURG at The Creek & The Cave!
Puppetsburg does hipster, tattooed puppet shows for 0-4 year olds. The shows are 45 minutes long and involve dancing, instruments, and bubble time (!) followed by a puppet story that is different each week. Children get to know a cast of handmade puppet characters including Clementine, a hipster who always carries around a plush camera for "instagram-esque photos," Piggy B, a pig with blue glasses and an "over-it" look on his face, and Rex, who's favorite animal is a T-Rex like the one he wears on his shirt.
Regularly exploring concepts like counting, simple vocabulary, hygiene, and hipster culture, Puppetsburg is a uniquely contemporary puppet show that is entertaining for infants, toddlers, and parents alike. Puppetsburg also offers exclusively-infant shows for the pre-walking crowd.
You can get a good sense of our show by watching our video, reading parent testimonials, and checking out our upcoming season of shows at www.puppetsburg.com.
