[Little Theater]

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

June 30, 2014

Please include the following as a press release and/or a community calendar
announcement.  Thank you.





*Mettawee River Theater Company Puppets return to Little Theater on the
Farm on Thursday, July 10th at 8pm with their summer production “The
Dancing Fox: Wisdom Tales of the Middle East”.*



*“The Dancing Fox:* a reprise of a 2003 Mettawee production, is gathered
from the shared folk traditions of Jews and Arabs, including the writings
of Sufi mystics, along with fables and folklore of the region. In these
tales we encounter some clever foxes, dim-witted fish, a vengeful snake and
other colorful creatures, as well as a number of wise and foolish humans.
New perspectives emerge from the comic twists and tragic turns of their
adventures. A variety of masks, puppets and giant figures will be used to
flesh out the particular realm of each tale.



Under the Artistic Direction of mask maker, designer and director Ralph
Lee, the Mettawee River Theatre Company, founded in 1975, creates original
theater productions that incorporate masks, giant figures, puppets and
other visual elements with live music, movement and text, drawing on myths,
legends and folklore of the world’s many cultures for its material. The
company is committed to bringing theater to people who may have little or
no access to live professional performances.



Little Theater on the Farm is located at 27 Plum Road, Fort Edward.
Admission is free, but donations to the Mettawee River Theater Company at
the event are greatly appreciated.

full schedule of this summer’s outdoor tour, visit the company’s web site
