ABOUT THE SHOW: We are so excited to partner with the Deep River Library to bring this classic marionette puppet show to Deep River. An Arabian Adventure features over a dozen beautifully hand-crafted marionettes and exquisite “story-book” style scenery. It’s the swashbuckling tale of a prince who is thrown into a dungeon because of his love for a beautiful princess. Facing danger at every turn, the courageous prince must battle his way out of the underground prison to save his princess from a tragic fate. The soundtrack features professional acting set to the background of classical music from favourite composers, as well as traditional folk music.

Suitable for ages 5+. Children must be accompanied by an adult.

THEOP gratefully acknowledges support for this presentation from the Deep River and District Community Foundation, and from the Department of Canadian Heritage.

You can check out a little preview of An Arabian Adventure HERE.
