Catskill Puppets – The Lion’s Whiskers April 25 – 10:am, and 1:pm
A hard-working young woman falls in love with a man who has lost his wife, but is not the only one. Both women go to the shaman seeking a potion that will quickly give them their desires. The shaman instead sets them tasks – the young woman must get 3 whiskers from a lion. A dangerous task that teaches her patience which she can use to win the hearts of her love and his son.
Silly Billy Magic — April 26 – 10:am & 1:pm
Wearing his trade-mark jumbo-sized glasses, Silly Billy combines great magic with lots of comedy. Get silly with Silly Billy! “A zany magician who lives up to his name.” Best Children’s Entertainer in New York” – NY Times
Bert the Nerd – Juggler Extraordinaire — April 10 – 10:am, and 1:pm – (both of Bert’s shows are 1/2 sold)
Whether perched atop a unicycle flinging around knives and torches, walking a rope, or simply smashing crackers with a sledgehammer, Bert manages to command the force of gravity but gets mystified by his necktie. Bert’s powerful performance fills the stage with amazing skill in juggling and magic, hard-hitting comedy, audience participation, and a wonderful spontaneity that keeps his audience screaming for more.
Ventriloquist Steve Charney – April 28 – 10:am and 1:pm
A one-man vaudeville show. Steve Charney, with his wooden assistant Harry, has performed magic, music, jokes, and other forms of comedy through out the US for several decades. His songs have become part of the PBS show The Bear in the Big Blue House. Daniel Pinkwater described Charney as “A scholar of various types of lunacy, and as to his sense of humor, I think it is primitive, juvenile and absolutely perfect.” There is no-one like Steve Charney, you have to see why.
Dan Butterworth Marionettes – Carnival Del Mundo — April 29 – 10:am and 1:pm
