    Three goat puppets on a stage

    Description

    Three little goats are in search of greener grass when they come upon a cranky troll who won’t let them pass. Will the goats find the food they need? How will they get past the troll? What does this troll want, anyway? Enjoy this retelling of a classic story, this time with a conservationist twist just right for a puppet show in a park! Come see classic Piper marionette puppets in a brand-new script featuring audience interaction.

    Recommended ages 4+. Run time approximately 45 minutes.
