The Centenary Stage Features a Lively and Colorful
Puppetry is an ancient art form that has transcended time and crossed cultural boundaries to entertain generations of children and adults. The Catskill Puppet Theater takes great pride in carrying on in the living tradition of the old traveling puppet troupes, bringing high quality children's theater to over 100,000 people each year. Now they’re coming to The Centenary Stage Company to wrap up this season’s Family Fun Series with their performance of The Lion’s Whiskers on Saturday, April 13 at 2pm in the Sitnik Theater of the David and Carol Lackland Center. Audiences will also have a chance to participate in a workshop where they can create a take-home puppet of their own after the show.
Since 1979, John Potocnik and Carol Mandigo, co-founders of the Catskill Puppet Theater, have been touring internationally,
enchanting young and old with their delightful musical productions. Combining backgrounds in art, music, drama and
American folk culture they are one of the nation's finest touring companies, receiving accolades from such premiere
venues as the Calgary, Winnepeg and Ottawa International Children's Festivals, The New England Puppetry and Family
Theater Series, the New York State Museum's Kid's Series and hundreds of schools, fairs and festivals.
