Turtle's New Home - Puppet Showplace Theatre, Brookline
Through 4/6
Tickets: $12

New England animals are the stars of this puppet show about friends in a wetland habitat. The little pond where Blanding the turtle has lived for many years is no longer safe because a road has been built between there and the place she goes to lay her eggs. When she meets young Castor the Beaver, who is eager to build a dam, she sees that her problems might be solved! Along the way, we also meet a young boy and his nature-loving babysitter who learn together how to look closely at nature.
