Description
Featuring over twenty beautifully hand-crafted marionettes, The Fairy Circus is a showcase for turn-of-the-century-style trick puppetry. The puppets will dance, play instruments, juggle, contort, transform, and fly through the air with the greatest of ease, all to the toe-tapping, hand-clapping melodies of jazz and classical music. A feast for the eyes and ears, this title is perfect for younger children and family audiences.
