“Judy Punches Back,” Puppet Motion's modern interpretation of the traditional "Punch and Judy" show, is a hilarious, timely, hand-crafted farce that can be enjoyed by the whole family.

After being pushed around for over 400 years, the famous hand puppet heroine Judy has had enough. Audience members young and old cheer her on as she goes on a quest for respect, justice, and a well-deserved nap.

This is an outdoor performance at Deering Oaks Park Bandstand (61 Park Ave). A blanket or chair to sit on, sunscreen, and water are recommended.
