Marie Hitchcock Puppet Theater

Arts / Performance Venues, Balboa Park


Fodor's Review:

One of the last of its kind, the theater has been presenting shows for more than 50 years. Performances incorporate marionettes, hand puppets, rod puppets, shadow puppets, and ventriloquism, while the stories range from traditional fairy tales to folk legends and contemporary puppet plays. Pantomime, comedy, and music round out the program. Kids will be wide-eyed at the short, energy-filled productions. Adults will be overcome with nostalgia.
