Matt Sandbank's Shadow Factory return to the Puppetry Arts Institute with  "The Legend of Walter Weirdbeard." When a pirate crew finds a treasure chest full of old books, they mutiny!

Show Times: 11:00 am and 2:00pm
Tickets: $5.00 all ages

That's a really great title!

This sounds brilliant! Will there be any pics or video clips to see for those of us who can't swim that far?

I am not really sure if there is any video out there of this show. The Puppetry Arts Institute is here close to KCMO where I live and I get there monthly newsletter. I've simply been trying to add the show they are presenting for the month into our calendar in case anyone is close enough to see the show.   Was kind of hoping it would get more folks posting about shows in the Events area. I do realize that it is not always possible for folks to see since we are so spread out across the world but you never know who may be in your area.

I did find a website for Matt Sandbanks Shadow Factory. He or they are based out of Nashville TN.  Looks like he does a lot of shows for schools.
