"The Puppet Princess"

WonderSpark Puppets premieres "The Puppet Princess" in a free performance in the East Fourth Street Community Garden.
Princess Willow (portrayed by Jenny Hann, pictured above) has lost her best friend, Sprig the horse. The princess needs the audience's help to find him. Along the way, she and audience members sing songs together and make new friends in this highly-interactive puppet show.
Following the performance, children of all ages are invited to attend a workshop on making finger puppets.
The show kicks off at 1:00 p.m. on Sunday, June 25th.
