City Parks Foundation is celebrating the 80th anniversary of the world-renowned children’s story Pippi Longstocking by the legendary Swedish author Astrid Lindgren. To honor this milestone, our traveling marionette theater, the PuppetMobile, will present Pippi, a fresh retelling of the classic Swedish tale.
The production features nearly two dozen, hand-made marionettes crafted by the expert puppeteers. In addition to the brilliant artistry of the production, kids and families will enjoy the incredible adventures of quick-witted and super-strong Pippi as she overcomes bullies, all while fending off unnecessary social conventions.
