| Description: |
Freshwater Pearls presents a duet of heartfelt stories. In the first, a snowman falls desperately in love with a potbellied stove. Rich with emotion and symbolism, Hans Christian Anderson's The Snowman's Wish snows softly on the heart. Like snow diamonds in the sun, Freshwater Pearls' production sparkles with the beauty of winter and of love beyond reach. The second, The Ballad of Sticky Bun, is a merry, romantic adventure: A mouse. An obsession. A plan. |

| Description: |
The real thing, learned first-hand by Freshwater Pearls in England. Traditional bits of business with a modern sense of humor and Freshwater Pearls' sweetly rowdy style. Puppets and swazzling by Diane Rains. Bottling and live hammered dulcimer music by Stu Janis. And the most adorable live "Toby Dog" in the history of Punchdom or dogdom! |
