Coming from Colorado Springs! The David Simpich Marionettes!
Master puppeteer David Simpich and his thirty hand-carved marionettes bring to life John Bunyan's timeless tale of a fantastic dream -- The Pilgrim's Progress. This elaborate two-hour production portrays the classic visions found in the New World's first best-seller: the Slough of Despond; Vanity Fair; the River of Death; battles with demons and dragons; imprisonment by a giant; and colorful discourse with an array of wise men and fools.
