This dynamic pop-up puppet show brings to life a true story of art and social protest, based on the children’s book by bestselling author Innosanto Nagara. Created and performed by fellow artivist (artist/activist) Tanya Nixon-Silberg, the show transports audiences to Jakarta, Indonesia in the 1970s, where 7-year-old Inno learns firsthand how a play has the power to spark a resistance movement. Featuring designs by Puppet Showplace Theater’s Resident Artist Sarah Nolen, the story is brought to life with a rich soundscape, visual transformations, and kid-centered lessons about social justice.
Best for Kids aged 5-8!
