A Puppet Show for the Whole Family – “Old Man and the River”

Sunday, March 15, 2026 - Saturday, March 21, 2026

Old Man and the River
By Lynda Hill and Thomas Morgan Jones
Recommended for children 3 years +

In a storybook world where a river sings, trees laugh, and curious dragonflies come to visit, lives a grumpy little old man. Every day is the same and he likes it this way – until one day, a magical creature leaps into his world and everything changes!

Performed without words using artful tabletop puppetry and evocative music,WeeFestival’s acclaimed production Old Man and the River, is a heartwarming and hilarious tale for children and their grownups!

“It’s rare to see such a tiny perfect play for such a tiny perfect price!” Happy Parent
