Northwest Puppet Center, 9123 15th Ave. N.E., is kicking off its 2010-2011 season with a new take on the old classic “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice.” The whimsical new production by its founding artistic directors, Christine and Stephen Carter, is described like this:
This show combines the famous tale of “The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” with the plot from a 19th century Parisian puppet play by Louis Emil Duranty about a magician’s ill-fated picnic. Get ready for the buckets to fly in this classical and comical work of puppet theater!
The show debuts Saturday, Nov. 6, and continues through Nov. 21 with showtimes at 1 and 3 p.m. Saturday and Sunday. Admission is $10.50 for adults; $8.50 for children; and $9 for seniors.
