About
A circus show where the performers are puppets: the ring, the acts and the applause, all on a small stage made for children. It plays at the Teatro de Títeres de El Retiro, the city's puppet theater inside Retiro Park, so a show and a morning in the park fit into one outing. A good pick for preschoolers and early primary kids who like circus acts.
