The Coney Island History Project presents Jokes with Josue: A Haitian Puppet Show, created and performed by Emmanuel Elpenord. Jokes with Josue is a series of Haitian riddles featuring a marionette and cut-aways to toy theater scenes, all set under Haitian music.

It includes a longer-form Haitian folktale or fable performed in a traditional style with some call and response games, pantomime, character voices and improvisation.

The free performance is in the outdoor plaza below the park's Phoenix roller coaster.
