TECK Family Series presents Worlds of Puppets’ Peter and the Wolf

March 9 2:00 to 3:00 pm

In this beautiful telling of Peter and the Wolf by Worlds of Puppets, each character is portrayed by an amazing cast of intricate marionettes carved of wood, as well as other styles of puppets.

The music leads the show in this performance, in an orchestral piece that was created by Russian composer Sergei Prokofiev in 1936 to help young people get to know the instruments in a symphony orchestra.

Peter lives at his grandfather's home in a forest clearing. One day, Peter goes out leaving the garden gate open, and his grandfather scolds him for being outside in the meadow in case a wolf came out of the forest. Peter says that he is not afraid of wolves and plans to prove this to his grandfather.

Bernd Ogrodnik, former Master Puppeteer for Iceland’s National Theater and founder and Artistic Director of the Icelandic Center for Puppetry Arts created the show and all the puppets!

"...one of puppetry's most impressive talents.” - The Philadelphia Inquirer

"Bernd Ogrodnik has become widely recognized as a superb artist ...” Leslie Ash, Executive Producer of the Jim Henson Foundation.
