The Missississippi Puppetry Guild is set to perform Peter and the Wolf and The Nutcracker Sweets on Wednesday, December 9th, Thursday December 10th and Friday December 11th. Show times are 9am and 10:30am at Belhaven College Center for the Arts on Riverside Drive in Jackson. Single tickets are $6. Groups of ten and more - $5.00 per person. One free adult ticket with each group of ten children.
Sergei Prokofiev's "Peter and the Wolf" is the most exciting way to introduce children to classical music and puppetry. This world-famous musical tale has and been performed often, but very rarely using the unique Czech black theatre technique. The complex but stunning style of this presentation allows complete freedom of movement for the almost-life-size puppets who interact on stage with a real-life narrator to create a feel of a big screen animated cartoon. The seasonal finale with Tchaikovsky's favorite melodies from "Nutcracker" will please everyone. Marching penguins, dancing Russian bears, Snowmen, Pulchinellas, and many more, create a whirlwind of colors to bring laughter and joy of the season to children's faces.
