Cashore Marionettes

Winner of a Pew Fellowship for Performance Art and Puppetry’s Citation of Excellence, unmatched in artistry, grace and refinement of movement, the internationally acclaimed Cashore Marionettes redefine the art of puppetry. Through virtuoso manipulation, beautiful music by Beethoven, Vivaldi, Strauss, and Copland, theatrical illusion, and artistic insight, these performances are like no other in theater. The characters have depth, integrity, and humanity exploring a range of emotions and celebrating the richness of life. The marionettes are engineering marvels and the quality of movement is extraordinary and convincing.

In the 2:00 pm matinee, Simple Gifts, Joseph Cashore presents his collection of marionette masterworks in a series of poignant and lighthearted scenes from everyday life. For children 8 and older, and adults. Limited seating, 60 minutes.

The 7:30 pm evening program, Life in Motion, includes many of the original vignettes presented in Simple Gifts, plus a sensitive vision of what it is to be human. For adults and young adults, limited seating, 90 minutes.
