WP Puppet Theatre

has gone up the creek...

We are so excited to announce that Pigs in a Canoe & Other Watery Stories, is available for touring.

Now you can bring this inspiring and comical puppet show to any event, gathering or school in your community.

Audiences will meet the Greedy Frog, who swallowed all the water in the world; Water Droplet's funny adventures as he moves through water phases; shadowy creatures of The Deep; a twisted fairy tale of the Little Wolf Cubs and the Big Pig- Fish; and of course seven adorable pigs as they travel down Manitoba's Red River.

More stories, a new set, lighting and sound bring to life the repertoire of historical anecdotes, facts, fictions, riddles and song.

Pigs in a Canoe is a performance with multiple core curriculum links such art, drama, music, social studies, language arts and science. The Fun Guide is a great on-line companion that can be reviewed by educators and their students both before and after the production.

"Thank you for a great performance today! I've received nothing but positive feedback from both the students and staff."
