AN ART GALLERY becomes a parable of humanity on the final day of a group show of three fictitious contemporary American artists. “Museum” is a mosaic of events and incidents that crisscross one another in the contemporary gallery of a medium-sized art museum. The play leaves us wondering: what is art, how does it make us feel, and why are we so compelled to create it, view it, and judge it?

THIS CHARMING MUSICAL adaptation of Tomie dePaola’s 1976 Caldecott Honor book brings Strega Nona, Big Anthony, and the magic pasta pot to life. Through song, storytelling, and puppetry, we meet Strega Nona, the kind-hearted “grandmother witch” who tells Big Anthony one thing he must not do. But Big Anthony is in big trouble. Will Strega Nona save the day?

The troupe performs this traveling show at schools, libraries, summer camps, churches, and town fairs.
