1001 Nights

Audiences will be swept off to fantastical faraway places this spring when 1001 Nights: A Love Story About Loving Stories hits the stage. Innovative New York company The Flying Carpet and puppetry experts Center for Puppetry Arts, join forces as a “dream team” to create the ultimate “family puppet musical.”

In this celebration of brainy imagination over brawn, a princess uses her wits to save a kingdom from an evil decree as she spins tale after tale for a narrow-minded king. Featuring genies, jesters, 40 thieves and other captivating characters, the princess’s cliffhanger stories keep the king—and audiences—on the edge of their seats. This playful adaptation of the “Arabian Nights” fairy tales is recommended for ages six and up.
