​ By Jean Minuchin

This set honors the Day of the Dead and the Celtic holiday Samhain 
( which later turned into Halloween ) both occurring at this time of year.

The story of this Old Man is loosely based on the story

This engaging puppet performance delights children of all ages

Octopus, a horse, as well as many other animals.

By Jean Minuchin

​Jean Minuchin plays an American Stink Bug who interacts with the audience to poke at America’s deep political and cultural divides. 


Trigger Warnings: 
Scatological humor, Political topics, Audience interaction, Bug Clown


3:15  Flour Dusted Tunes
By Jonathan Stevens with Steven Katz 

Picture



​I’m a songwriter when I’m not being a bread baker. Or a bike-rider or a grandpa
​(known as “Nono”). I’ve been writing songs for over 40 years, but they’re as quirky and idiosyncratic as ever: crusty, chewy, well-fermented. Songs about seasonal plants, historic floods, poets-turned-into-modes-of-transportation. Luckily, my next-door-neighbor is a world-class cellist, so these lyrics and melodies get an airing-out via
his bow sometimes. Come see.

Appropriate for all ages​​

4:00 pm  Tree of Wisdom: My Aduon
​Across the Sea Foundation, Inc.

Picture
Tree of Wisdom, My Aduon was recently published on DVAN.org 

The essay is about my grandmother who cared for and nurtured me when I was just a young child without parents. Perhaps she found comfort in sowing seeds of life through weaving fabric, foraging for wild edibles, and growing food. She offered what protection she could, through the devastating destruction in the lives of my people. It includes a brief history of the indigenous tribes of Montagnard Degar. The Montagnard people are a culturally diverse indigenous community in the Central Highlands of Vietnam. During the Vietnam war, these villagers fed and sheltered US Special Forces soldiers, helped them navigate the jungles, and fought alongside them. Claims to their land, resources, and human rights have still not been recognized and as a result they suffer from poverty and oppression.
