Theater Works closes PuppetWorks season with blacklight under sea adventure
Posted
By Jeremy Carr
Theater Works concludes the 2016-17 PuppetWorks season with a revival of last season’s underwater blacklight adventure, “Sea of Imagination.”
Sammy the star falls from the sky and lands under the sea. His underwater adventures take him places he has never been and he meets new sea creatures. On his quest, he discovers that home is where the heart is.
PuppetWorks productions are performed in the black light style of puppetry causing the puppets, scenery and even the audience to glow. “Sea of Imagination” is on the Gyder stage with performances at 10:30 a.m. and noon April 8, 15 and 22.
Each 40-minute show includes a post-show tutorial on the puppets used in the show and a brief overview of puppetry manipulation. After the show, there is an option for a make-and-take workshop where audience members can make their own simple puppet to take home with them. Productions are geared towards audience members ages 3-8.
Tickets for “Sea of Imagination” are now on sale. General admission tickets are $8. The production takes place in the Gyder Theater of the Peoria Center for the Performing Arts, 8355 W. Peoria Ave.
