PuppetArt’s Kolobok @ Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall

On Sunday, August 24th at 2:00 PM, the Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall will come alive with puppets, storytelling, and Russian folklore as PuppetArt Theatre presents Kolobok, a family-friendly puppet show inspired by the beloved Russian version of The Gingerbread Man. This one-time performance is a special fundraiser for the Historic Elk Rapids Town Hall Association, a nonprofit that maintains and programs the beloved community gathering space.

🎟️ Tickets are just $12 for adults, $6 for kids aged 4 to 16, and free for children under 4. Tickets are available now at the Elk Rapids Cinema box office and online at http://www.chalfontetheatre.org/tickets.

Kolobok, which means "little butterball," follows the whimsical adventures of a dumpling-like character who escapes the oven and meets a series of forest animals. In this joyful adaptation, two live actors portray mystical forest spirits who animate a colorful array of handmade floor puppets designed by renowned puppet maker Irina Baranovskaya.

Following the performance—perfect for young audiences and under an hour in length—children and families will have the opportunity to meet the puppets up close and take photos with the characters.
