My daughter celebrated her birthday here, and the kids absolutely loved the place. The staff were extremely friendly and treated us as if we were old friends. My wife and I have made up our minds to revisit with the kids even though it's 50 minutes from home. The whole atmosphere just feels earthy and natural providing for an experience that will last in our memories

A bit pricey but a lovely show and a very enthusiastic, experienced and exciting puppeteer! My daughter really enjoyed the three billy goats gruff and I enjoyed learning how to make a homemade hand/finger puppet!

World class rendition of The Nutcracker - really amazing production by dedicated and passionate artists, and much more than just a puppet show. The choreography was outstanding and the show was well-directed for younger kids. We would love to make this a family tradition.

Our family enjoyed a performance of the Nutcracker that included some very fun puppeteering and comical, expressive characters. Cozy performance space, located within Glen Eco Park that includes a beautiful old carousel (currently under renovations) and an interesting playground structure for exploring. Fun outing for kids of all ages.

Owned and run by people who are clearly passionate about what they do. Don't judge the shows based on your perceptions and biases as an adult -- experience them through the eyes of your young children (the target audience). Great set design, simple but magical effects, and ingenious uses of scale and puppetry styles.
