This week, 1 of 16: Planeta Tierra: Puppet Show in El Retiro Park




A puppet show staged as a lecture about our planet that keeps getting interrupted, by invited guests, uninvited ones and, somehow, pears. Kids follow how life began on Earth and the creatures that came to fill it, until humans show up with harmful habits and the audience is asked how to help. Títeres Sol y Tierra, a Madrid company, has made environmental puppet theater since the 1980s.
More family picks, Friday to Sunday.
