This twice GRAMMY-nominated artist dishes out intelligent and whimsically rocking music for kids and their parents. As People magazine notes, the music is "on your feet fun and laugh-out-loud funny." Bodies spring to their feet and rush the stage; jumping, dancing and bouncing off each other like bumper cars, all participating in the kiddie mosh pit found at nearly every Justin Roberts concert. With a style compared to Elvis Costello and Green Day, Justin and his band are an audience favorite year after year. Justin is celebrating the release of his acoustic new album Lemonade.

Puppetkabob's Sarah Frechette with her Snowflake Man

A Scintillating Science-based Puppetry Performance
Puppetkabob: The Snowflake Man
?Saturday, December 17 at 11 am and 2 pm
Tickets are $17 ($14 for members)

This colorful puppet production is inspired by Wilson "Snowflake" Bentley, the self-educated farmer and scientist who attracted world attention when he became the first person to photograph a single snow crystal. This child-friendly show brings audiences into the historic 1920s through creative storytelling, intricately designed Czech-style marionettes, and a striking pop-up book of watercolor scenery. A UNIMA-USA award winner, it combines art, science, and a little known piece of American history to magical effect. Puppetmaster Sarah Frechette has been a public television show puppeteer and has designed costumes for LAIKA studios (ParaNorman, etc.) She founded her award-winning company Puppetkabob, and now tours internationally. Puppetkabob blends science and history with puppetry arts to create a dynamic and interactive theater experience. Visit www.puppetkabob.com to learn more, and view the trailer HERE.
