The puppets will dance, play instruments, juggle, contort, transform, and fly through the air with the greatest of ease, all to the best-loved music of favorite composers.

• Chris Shaw, Thursday, Aug. 12, with songs and stories. Mr. Shaw has performed world-wide in the past three decades and has created a much respected repertoire of songs and stories representing the rural way of life, and in particular all things Adirondack.
