Calling their company "Tree of Wonder," they retell classic stories with their own style and Russian-style puppets. From their website, they write:
"All our performances are equally based as much on the well known and loved original fairy tails as on the new and original imagination stories written especially for the Tree of Wonder. We love telling original stories and we love to combine several stories into one exciting and unpredictable tale. No matter which fairy tale we perform we always strive to create beautifully involved performance. After each performance we provide a project to create. It is a puppet that a child could bring home and recreate a show with his own puppet."
We are looking forward to seeing this performance before visiting Tree of Wonder puppeteers at their workshop as they work on the puppets for the story of "Christopher Columbus" puppet show in time to celebrate Columbus Day.
