Puppet Showplace Theater:  The Four Seasons by Drama of Works

About the Show Classical music, plus lots of gentle humor, bring to life this beautifully illustrated story of seasonal change and a parent-child relationship. Big Fox is only concerned with all the chores that must be done each season. Little Fox only wants to play with Bird. But when winter comes, Bird must fly away. Will Big Fox keep doing chores, or stop and play with Little Fox to cheer him up? Set to Vivaldi’s violin compositions of the same name, The Four Seasons invites us to watch through Little Fox’s eyes as the seasons transform — with the help of innovative magnetic sets and charming, bright puppets designed by Estonian illustrator Kristiana Pärn. Drama of Works is a New York-based, award-winning puppet theater company that travels the world with its imaginative shows. The Four Seasons is performed with modernist-influenced flat metal puppets — as if picture book illustrations peeled themselves off the page and came to life on stage! — in a contemporary twist on a style of puppetry known as “toy theater.” All ages welcome, especially enjoyed by ages 3 - 8 Toy theater (flat tabletop puppets) Length: 40 minutes Language: wordless From New York City!
