Just in time for the holidays: Wonderspark Puppets’ Chicken Soup, Chicken Soup explores the sometimes-tricky situation when two families, and two traditions, come together.

Based on the beloved PJ Library book by Pamela Mayer, Wonderspark’s expressive and energetic hand puppets tell the story of two grandmothers, one Jewish and one Chinese, who come up with elaborate ways to convince their granddaughter Sophie that their cultural heritage (their chicken soup) is the best. But Sophie has some convincing of her own planned... (40 min.)  

Designed for young children from ages 4–8, but fun for all!

Presented with live ASL interpretation.
