March 22, 2021: Summer shows!
We're hopeful for summer! Once again, we have funding support for outdoor summer shows, our annual Neighborhood Tour. We can bring a show to your neighborhood to entertain families and build community! If you like, we can couple it with a make-and-take puppet activity. All of this for a tiny fraction of our normal fee with preference given to low and middle-income neighborhoods. Call us at 319-627-2487 or email!
April 11, 2021: A fun new show!
THE BREMEN TOWN MUSICIANS
This handsome fellow is one of the stars of our new show. He's joined by a donkey, a dog, and a cat, some plot twists, and an adventure! This beloved Grimm's fairy tale jumps into the 21st century with live music-guitar and piano-by Laura Kittrell.
It's large and tall enough to be presented as a Drive-In show, and you can listen through your car radio! Supported by an Artsdollar$ grant from Quad City Arts, it's available for booking at a very reasonable price. Contact us before the grant money is all used up!
Eulenspiegel Puppets performs a brand new show featuring the fun adventures animals are having while humans are limiting their community contacts. Based on true stories of animal antics during a pandemic, with a lot of imagination thrown in.
Who will win the big election for Leader of the Beasts? Will it be Benny P. (for Progress) Beaver or Terry E.
Listen to Prokofief's beloved music as you watch Peter outsmart the wolf! Eulenspiegel Puppets use beautifully crafted large tabletop puppets and rod puppets to tell this classic tale of a young boy, his grandfather, his pets, and the creatures that live in the meadow and the forest.
The Fisherman and his Wife is the ancient Grimm’s Fairy Tale of the magical fish who grants wishes until the beneficiaries become too greedy and too hungry for power.
