A Froggy Fun Fest!
Friday, June 10th at 7:00pm, the Puppet Showplace is really
gonna jump as we welcome back Perry Alley Theatre in a
rare performance of their show The Frog Prince and
Massachusetts native John Lechner, author of A Froggy
Fable!
Can a short green dude and a beautiful princess find true love
amongst the waterlilies? Come and find out! Perry Alley
Theatre's performances always surprise and delight.
Following the performance, author/illustrator
John Lechner will
read from his new book "A Froggy Fable," and be available to
meet fans and sign copies of it.
Don't be green with envy, come and join us for what promises
to be a hoppin' good time!
