This puppet show is a globetrotting retelling of the
classic folk tale. It features many puppet styles – Punch & Judy, marionettes, hand, rod, and
shadow puppets – that expose the audience to the variety of puppetry used to tell a story. Our
puppets also represent a number of different cultures – Latin America, Middle East, India, and
even Hollywood – to celebrate cultural diversity. The audience learns that each culture has a
unique view of the same tale.

Cover to Cover: Creating a
Handmade Book
Expand upon the concepts presented in your

with constructing a book (which may include tunnel, accordion or pop-up or structures). Each
student’s words and images will become the content of their books. Finally, students will
represent the concept of their book with a visual image and title for the cover.
