Stop what you are doing! Put down that cup of tea! Gently set aside whatever puppet you are currently embroidering! We have reached a critical juncture in the space-time-puppet continuum!
The calendar—that relentless march of squares—is telling us that March 31st is fast approaching. And do you know what happens when the clock strikes midnight on the 31st? Our Early Bird ticket pricing will vanish into the ethereal mist!
A Leap of Faith (and Felt!)
The absolute bestest thing about Early Bird season is seeing so many of you grab your tickets before we’ve even announced our full lineup. It truly warms our oversized, metaphorical hearts! It means you’re relying on our reputation of joy—knowing that when August rolls around, Almonte will be bursting with the kind of magic only Puppets Up! can provide.
But, because we love a good secret (and because we’re just too excited to keep it all in), here’s a tiny, tantalizing teaser of who you can expect to see in the streets this August. We are thrilled to welcome back some of our absolute festival favorites:
- The incredible Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers! 🐸
- The high-energy hilarity of Rock the Arts! 🎸
- The breathtaking artistry of Tanglewood Marionettes! ✨
…and that’s just the tip of the puppet-berg!
