Somerville Arts Council presents:
“PUNSCHI” by Jana Zeller & Shoshana Bass of Sandglass Theater
Tuesday, June 14 at 6pm (Raindate Wednesday, June 15 at 6pm)
Step right up to the greatest show on Earth, featuring two performances for the price of one. Fritzi’s Flea Circus welcomes audiences into a delightful world of circus acts presented by a tiny flea with a big personality. Experience the amazing feats of Fritzi as the strong man, the high diver and even watch as him as he is shot out of a cannon into the audience. Next, Kasper packs to go on a journey, but before he can leave, a cow steals his suitcase. With the help of his best friend, the endearing giant Augustin, Kasper has to go on a rollicking chase to reclaim his suitcase from the cow. Join Jana Zeller & Shoshana Bass of Sandglass in this lively production, filled with action-packed, laugh-out-loud fun. Recommended for ages 4 and up

About the Series
As the summer season approaches, the Somerville Arts Council continues with one of its popular city-wide event series: Puppet Palooza! Events like this, along with PorchFEST and Dancing in the Streets allow the community to participate, interact, and engage in non-traditional ways in untraditional venues while cultivating the idea of Somerville as a cultural arts incubator without walls.
Puppet Palooza brings the art of puppetry to east Somerville in unexpected places. Join us in East Somerville for a five-part puppetry extravaganza. This June, we’ll hit the streets, courtyards and parks, showcasing local, national, and international performing companies. Great for kids and adults and 100% free.
