MARCH 25 & 28
This fantasy adventure from legendary puppeteers Jim Henson and Frank Oz is a cult favorite. In a magical world ruled by an evil race (the “Skeksis”) it falls to the elf-like Jen, a “Gelfling,” to challenge their power. Groundbreaking in its use of animatronics, it paved the way for Henson and Oz’s collaboration on Labyrinth. The Skeksis dinner scene is a classic combination of artistry and humor…you’ll believe these puppets are real. ("Ah, roast Nebrie, my favorite!")
