TIME FOR A DOSE OF MAGIC?

You’ve seen Paperhand Puppet Intervention's majestic creations during the Greensboro Summer Solstice Parasol Parade, but have you ever beheld them in their full glory during a summer performance?

There are just 10 shows left of the 2024 Production: EARTH & SKY. It is absolutely enchanting and will touch the young and the young at heart! You will be transported and inspired. Grab your loved ones and go!

https://www.paperhandpuppet.org/earthandsky

Pro Tips: Pack a picnic or grab some takeout in Durham or Chapel Hill, find someplace within 5 minutes to park (legally) and order an Uber or Lyft so you can skip the parking shenanigans and be dropped off at the front entrance! Stadium cushions & a blanket make the beautiful outdoor Forest Theater amphitheater more comfy!

✨ THANK YOU KATHY ROONEY! ✨

💫 Kathy Rooney has spent her career becoming a master of Rolfing. Her well-known company Rolfing and Associates has relieved pain and suffering for countless numbers of people in the Triad.

🧚 Her knowledge and expertise are something to behold and the faeries are forever in her debt for keeping us healthy and happy.

💫 Her contributions to the Solstice aside from being a major donor for 18 years, include creating our infamous “Parasol Parade” that comprises a second line New Orleans style band, parasols, giant puppets, winged creatures and all the best costumes of the day. She is also a dancer, a superb gardener and an awesome party thrower.

❤️ We salute Kathy as she moves into retirement and thank her for the incredible energy that she has bestowed on our festival for the last 18 years.
