The 9th Annual Menlo Park Puppetry Festival is coming!We kick it off the puppet shows with our inaugural performance from Pop and Go Puppets.
Scamper Squirrel is in trouble! It appears his tree is about to be torn down by bulldozers. In a forest farce full of shady characters and mistaken identities, Scamper is going to need a lot of help from the audience.
