Opinion/Suggestion: Take Your Child (Or Someone Else's) to Putney Saturday Afternoon for Fritze's Fabulous Flea Circus AND The Bubble Brothers Soap Suds Circus
Post a comment (login required)
Want a truly mind-expanding, transporting, and terrifically fun experience that you'll savor with a child? Take your child, someone else's child, or go yourself to the Sandglass Theater in Putney, VT Saturday afternoon for an amazing puppet theater presentation! Ines Zeller Bass and Rob Mermin join forces at 2:00 and 4:00 p.m. shows to present "Bubble and Flea". The show, which runs a little over an hour, includes Bass's piece called Fritze's Fabulous Flea Circus and Mermin's new creation called The Bubble Brothers' Soap Suds Circus. It includes Ines' incredible flea circus, a brilliant, old worldly romp that people of all ages will enjoy and Mermin's new production, a circus act where the puppets are actually soap bubbles. (We haven't seen that one yet.)
Ines and her husband Eric Bass are world renowned puppeteers. You will be amazed with her showmanship. These performances are part of the Sandglass Mid-Winter Sunshine Series and are appropriate for children from around 5 years and up.
Tickets for all performances are $8. Reservations are strongly suggested and may be made at 802-387-4051. For further information, visit www.sandglasstheater.org. Sandglass Theater can be reached by taking I-91 to Exit 4 at Putney VT and taking Rt. 5 north to the center of the town. Turn left, uphill, on Westminster Road at the general store. Sandglass is the third building on the left, a red barn set back from the road. CCB (and SLB!)
