CANCELLED: CityParks PuppetMobile: Pippi Longstocking
2025-05-15 10:30 - 11:30
This event has been cancelled due to weather.
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.
This program is supported, in part, by public funds from the Consulate General of Sweden in New York.
