Sometimes, the most beautiful transformations begin with simply being yourself. 🦢⁠
⁠
From October 13th–18th, The Ugly Duckling takes the stage at @playhousesquare in Cleveland, OH, bringing this heartwarming tale of self-discovery and acceptance to life through our signature glowing puppetry.⁠

As the largest performing arts center in the United States outside of New York City, Playhouse Square is a pretty special place to share a story about discovering where you belong. ⁠

Next stop: Oxford, AL! ⁠
⁠
Keeping our puppets glowing and moving from city to city takes a little bit of maintenance! Between performances, our team is constantly repairing frames, replacing EL wire, and making sure every character is ready for the next show.⁠
⁠
Fun Fact: Our puppets are built from some pretty unexpected materials, including aluminum rods, skateboard wheels, dryer ducting, PVC pipes, fishing poles, plumbing supplies, duct tape, zip ties, and even backpacks! These everyday materials help create durable, flexible sculptures that can keep up with our performers night after night.⁠
⁠
Our Oxford stop includes one public performance on September 29th, followed by two private school performances on September 30th at @oxfordpac by @lightwiretheater
