Two tales rolled into one! This show mixes a pair of well-loved, classic stories to create an original fun-filled romp through fairyland.

About the Artist:
Barefoot Puppet Theatre has been building and performing original works since 1997 when founder and director, Heidi Rugg, began building puppet shows from the basement of her home in Richmond, Virginia. The company has since grown significantly and now tours nationally, while continuing to create new works for young audiences and their families. The mission of Barefoot Puppets is simple: to activate imaginations through the power of puppetry! To learn more, visit them online at: barefootpuppets.com.
