Puppet Show: Krishna’s Holi
Holi has its roots in ancient India. Lord Krishna loves to have fun with his friends and family. He plays Holi, throwing colored powders, and sharing love and laughter. The Culture Tree has created a puppet show that showcases Krishna playing Holi with his friends Radha and Sudama, with dance, drama, puppetry and songs.
