Traditional Punch & Judy
A lively, interactive puppet show carrying on a centuries-old entertainment tradition—with plenty of laughs and audience participation for today's audiences.
The sights and sounds of a traditional circus and fairground come to life through this remarkable mechanical organ—part music, part history and an attraction all its own.
