Description

Geppetto’s Marionette Theater bids farewell to its theater at the Hilton Anatole and debuts its pop-up theater experience at The Shops at Willow Bend, which will feature some of Geppetto’s more popular variety shows. Geppetto's new permanent theater at The Shops of Willow Bend is slated to begin construction later this year.

Located in Center Court inside The Shops at Willow Bend, this pop-up castle theater will present marionette shows from Geppetto's and Le Theatre de Marionette. The theater features a raised performance stage, bench seating, lighting and sound and gift shop, all within a controlled curtained area. Shows are presented cabaret style. Tickets are available through Eventbrite.

Silly Strings: Out of this World is a musical marionette show featuring colorful creatures, variety acts, and a salute to Star Wars. Robots, ewoks, stormtroopers, a 9-foot-tall T. rex dinosaur and other fun characters complete this show that is enjoyed by both kids and adults of all ages.

Styled to up tempo music, this show has everything from skating clowns to dancing hip hop aliens. Considered an audience favorite, the Silly Strings: Out of This World show is Geppetto's most popular program geared to school age children and their families.
