The Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry at the University of Connecticut will once more present its popular Summertime Saturday Puppet Shows for family audiences on six Saturdays, June 20-August 1, 2015. Each show will be performed twice, at 1 and 3 p.m. All performances will take place at the Ballard Institute Theater located at 1 Royce Circle, Storrs CT.
From the pages of "The Arabian Nights" comes the timeless story of "Aladdin"! This folktale comes alive with the help of Martin Stevens’ hand-crafted marionettes. Join us for a rare visit to the East Coast by this famed Indiana-based marionette company.
Admission is $5 for children, $7 for adults.
Tickets will be sold in advance through the Connecticut Repertory Theatre Box Office. The CRT Box Office is closed July 20-24, so tickets cannot be purchased in advance over the phone or in person at the box office. Tickets can only be purchased in advance online at https://itkt.choicecrm.net/templates/UCRT/index.php?prod=bimp. A $3.00 surcharge will be added to any purchases made online. Tickets may also be purchased at the Ballard Institute on the day of performance. There will be a limited number of seats.
