“Marvelous Metamorphoses” LIVE performances!
“Marvelous Metamorphoses” unravels to present bizarre and beautiful transformations in our world like caterpillar to butterfly, polliwog to frog, and more! In this outdoor performance we dance & sing our way through these cycles celebrating them for our sustained joy and ecological health on this planet. Do you want to hear a caterpillar rap? Your neurons may sparkle as we bring annual cycles to life through live music and the art of puppetry. Come and enjoy the marvels of nature and art together.
