Super Celebration Evening at the Library
The Award-Winning Oregon Shadow Theatre
will perform The Green Bird at 6:30 in the evening on
Wednesday, January 23, 2019 at the Forest Grove City Library
Arrive early to secure your free ticket to the show.
Behind the illuminated shadow screen, colorful shadow puppets come to life and tell the story of The Green Bird. A drum roll and a cymbal crash, the calliope sound of a button accordion, and the play begins: A boy is transformed into a fortune-telling bird by a magician. A brave girl journeys through Mexico to save him. In her travels, she encounters fantastic characters and scenes from Mexico's rich folkloric tradition. She sees skeletons dancing to the song La Bamba at a Day of The Dead fiesta. The climax of the play is set in the Bull Ring, where the audience joins in shouting "Ole!" Colorful and intricate shadow puppets combine with live music, voices and sound effects to create a delightful family entertainment.
Ages 5+ please.
