Curie O. Katt's Round-World Trip!
January 10-11
Saturday and Sunday Only!

Curie O. Katt was until very recently living in Flatland, but her curiosity got the better of her (as it always does), and now she has been convinced that there are more dimensions to explore that are worth her time in space on the funny shape we people call the Globe.
Watch as Curie and her best friend, Dolly Esper, explore the world together, faster than light as they slip between the shadows from place to place. A variety of shadow puppets, rod puppets, and the live-action cartoon "Mini Theater" show our beautiful world from angles you may never have considered!

The Freddy Show!
January 12-13
Saturday and Sunday Only!
Hope you are ready for Freddy as he tries to give the best sketch show ever, but finds out that is not as simple as he thought! Mishaps occur, including almost being eaten by a Lion!

Gee Golliest: It's The Very Dolliest!
February 6-8
Mother Sandwich is bedridden, and has invited her brother, Uncle Ham, to help look after the enormous Sandwich Family Mansion. Petrix wanted to look after the house herself, but she and her poppets keep getting lost in the walls, halls, basements, and attics. Uncle Ham shows them how the strange house is put together and they learn that cleaning and helping is much easier if you ask the right people for help. He knew her grandparents very well; they taught him everything he knows!
Join Petrix and her poppets as she and Dolly catch ghosts and set them free, find buried treasure, and learn more about their strange roots of their family tree!

Dolly's Birthday Party!
February 13-15

Dolly Esper was born on Friday the 13th! Unlucky for some, but for her, it's when she gets to meet new people, see old friends, and grow up just a tiny bit!
Maulina the singing snake has promised to conduct the audience to sing the most amazing rendition of 'Happy Birthday' ever. Vicki and Jamie, the Dino Brothers, are coming to play games, and the host is her best friend, Petrix the Clown, who hopes her surprise gift this year will be a hit.
Come a little early so you can make Dolly a birthday card! She loves them more than anything!
And look out on the Calendar, as Dolly celebrates her birthday EVERY Friday the 13th
