Word Play by Puppet Motion / Good Hearted Entertainment
- see all dates
Word Play uses clowning, puppetry, and live original music to take audiences on an adventure through the alphabet. Words come to life in the hands of Sarah Nolen and Harry LaCoste, who clown around with sounds and letters to create dozens of interactive characters and imaginative scenes.
With an array of instruments by his side, Paul Watkins sets the stage with live music for every magical moment. It's the perfect blend of education and entertainment - a play on words, literally! Word Play was inspired by creator Honey Goodenough's experience learning to manage her own dyslexia and literacy challenges. Audiences can make friends with vowels, teach tricks to a "C-A-T" and "D-O-G," and visit a whole ZOO full of surprises.
All ages welcome, especially enjoyed by ages 3-7
Object puppetry, live actors, and original music
Length: 45 minutes
This show was created by Honey Goodenough with support from the 2016 Incubator Program at Puppet Showplace Theater. It will be performed by Sarah Nolen, Harry LaCoste, and Paul Watkins.
