Follow the ongoing troubles and travails of Mr. Punch, puppetry’s favorite loudmouth, as he sings his way through trouble, adventure, and triumph in this hilarious new production by Modern Times Theater.

Included in the cast are the Bozo Brothers, who delight audiences with their dynamic percussive dance routines; a savage lion that can only be subdued by soothing music; and Mr. Punch’s cranky baby. See hand-puppetry at its best, in a style that has entertained both children and grown-ups for centuries. It addition to the puppet show, the program features a mini concert, offering selections from an extensive repertoire of early jazz, classic American folk songs, and original novelty numbers, performed on the cornet, ukulele, and bicycle pump.

May 16-17 (Thurs-Fri) | 10:30 am
May 18-19 (Sat-Sun) | 1:00 & 3:00 pm.
