Fabled Celebration Soared in the Heat

A lovely and playful exploration of fables, myths, and morals, by actors, dancers, puppeteer marionettistes, and hoopers!   

A Fabled Celebration of Tales (and of birthday Dan)

You will hear tell of (possibly not in this order)
“The Farmer and his Son bringing their Mule to Market!” From Nicky Checker
“Hare and the Tortoise”. From Beth Mitchell
“The Snow-drop and the Primrose” from Serena Judge
“The Foxes and the River” from Clare Byrne
The Phoenix marionette flies from Bobbi Nidzorski
“Le Corbeau et le Renard”. From Marya Ursin

Assembled by Marya.

Here is what one of the performers, Nick Checker, remarked.  

Sunday marked the annual summer theatre presentation at the dazzling Dragon’s Egg in Ledyard, directed by Marvelous Marya Ursin of the Mystic Paper Beasts — against the backdrop of an outdoor woodland setting — where we all performed select Aesop’s Fables to a highly appreciative audience that embraced our work. They even forgot about the steaming heat. Yes, the show was that good! This magical event also celebrated the birthday of Dan Potter, an artist and a human being who graces this world with his very presence. So grateful to have participated again with all of the gifted individuals there who comprise an amazing ensemble!
