See the delightful Fairy Circus at PST!

THIS WEEK AT PST!

Thu | May 24 | 10:30am
Sat & Sun | May 26 & 27 | 1pm & 3pm

Watch classical music meet marionettes in Tanglewood Marionettes' Fairy Circus!


About the show: You’re invited to an enchanted garden with surprises around every corner! The Fairy Circus features classic trick puppets and beautifully handcrafted marionettes. The puppets will dance, play instruments, juggle, contort, transform, and fly through the air with the greatest of ease, all to the music of favorite composers!

Recommended for ages 4 & up.

About the performer: Peter Schaefer was born into a family of puppeteers and has been performing with hand puppets, rod puppets and marionettes since he was a child. After refining his skills with a local puppet company for several years, Peter purchased a marionette show from a retiring Boston puppeteer and launched his own company: Mountain Marionettes. After touring nationally for two years, in 1993 Peter decided to join with a fellow puppeteer and form a new company: Tanglewood Marionettes.

Over his career, Peter has brought his unique marionette artistry to hundreds of thousands of children and families across the country!
