This year's Christmas production at Upfront Puppet Theatre is a magical retelling of the classic French fairy tale: "Puss in Boots."
This faithful adaptation brings the beloved story to life with a cast of expertly crafted long string marionettes, stunning special effects and an original musical score.
The story begins with three sons inheriting very different gifts: one receives a mill, another a donkey, and the youngest is left only a cat. But this is no ordinary cat — he can talk, and he's on a mission to change his master's fortunes. Through clever tricks and bold moves, the cat helps his master rise in status to become the Marquis of Carabas, outwitting a powerful ogre and securing a royal marriage.
