About the Show


Three classic tales make up this wonderful animal-inspired palooza! In a modern adaptation of the famous Norwegian folk tale, three quick-witted goats outsmart the green, snaggletooth troll that lives under the bridge. In The Lion and the Mouse two unlikely friends – one very big and one very small – learn to help each other to solve their problems.

And join adventurous, and naughty Peter Rabbit, who against his mother's wishes ventures into Mr. McGregor's garden for a taste of his favorite vegetable treats. He nearly escapes being made into rabbit stew with the help of his tag along little sister Flopsy.

All three tales are told with colorful friendly hand puppets, and feature lots of audience participation.


All ages welcome, especially enjoyed by ages 3-7

Hand puppets

Length: 50 minutes

From Worcester, Massachusetts!



About the Artist


For nearly 50 years, Pumpernickel Puppets has captivated audiences of all ages with humorous and colorful adaptations of classic folk and fairy tales. John McDonough and his puppets present over 250 shows a year at schools, libraries, and private parties throughout the New England area. For each production, John creates and performs all of his own puppets, which range from small hand puppets to larger-than-life figures.

John was four years old when he saw his first puppet show, and he immediately knew that he wanted to be a puppeteer. By his teens, John was presenting shows all over the New England area. Pumpernickel Puppets have had the honor of appearing at The Smithsonian Institution, Washington, DC, The Center for Puppetry Arts, Atlanta, GA, and the prestigious International Festival of Puppetry.
