The Headless Horseman Rides into Town with Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers



Families will Laugh their Heads off at Center for Puppetry Arts with this Comedic Version of the Classic Tale

WHAT:     The Headless Horseman of Sleepy Silly Hollow by Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers of Bar Harbor, ME

In this comedic adaptation, schoolteacher Ichabod Crane helps the hapless Headless Horseman find a new head and a spookier image. With clever music and quirky characters, adults are sure to enjoy this “spooktacular” performance just as much as their children.
