Oma says that knitting is not just pom pom hats and sweaters. Oma's knitting contains whole stories! This puppet tale will also feature live music by Molly Gawler.This new family show by Shoshana Bass and Jana Zeller is an intergenerational tale that revolves around Grandma or “Oma." It is her birthday and all are preparing for the celebration. While the grown-ups manage work phone calls, playdate logistics, and other such tasks, the children get into mischief with party decorating, present wrapping, and cake baking. Finally, they all gather around for one of Oma's stories told in yarn. One character emerges from the tangle of wool and nearly ruins the party. But not to worry, all ends well at Oma's house.
***Don't miss the FREE all-ages Recycled Rod Puppets workshop at 3:30 PM following the show!
