Hear the Wolf's Side in 'THE TRUE STORY OF THE THREE LITTLE PIGS' at Center for Puppetry Arts

By:

The classic tale depicts the Big Bad Wolf huffing and puffing and blowing three houses down-but according to the wolf, you've got it all wrong.

In The True Story of the Three Little Pigs by A. Wolf, Mr. Alexander T. Wolf finally explains his side of the story, which is that he just wanted to borrow a cup of sugar and he had a cold!

Patrons can see Mr. Wolf tell his story at the Center for Puppetry Arts, January 3 - 22 and decide who they believe. The show is performed by Mesner Puppet Theater from Kansas City, Missouri, and it features rod, shadow and mask puppetry.
