PUPPET PERFORMANCE: Sock Monkey Circus by Honey Goodenough, Good Hearted Entertainment, Austin, TX
Sock Monkey Circus is a full circus performed in miniature! This performance features the magical talents of the host "Funny Honey" and her clever monkeys, who are trained to juggle, dance, and swing on a flying trapeze! All this while traveling in their very own circus train car that converts into a miniature stage. These silly monkeys continually outsmart our host, all while performing a variety of circus routines. Everyone is welcome to monkey around with the Sock Monkey Circus!
Honey Goodenough has a Masters in Educational Theater from NYU Steinhardt School of Education, is the former Resident Teaching Artist of Puppet Showplace Theater in Boston Ma, and has 20+ years performing and teaching all ages.
