A statement from Goat on a Boat:

Due to the recent developments with the COVID19 virus on Long Island, in the US and around the world, Goat on a Boat has decided to cancel our puppet shows and programs in March 2020. Thank you for your understanding. Please be safe, be well and stay tuned for future shows.

 

After being pushed around for over 200 years, the famous hand puppet heroine Judy has had enough! Cheer her on as she goes on a quest for respect, justice, and a well-deserved nap. This modern interpretation of the traditional "Punch and Judy" show is a hilarious, timely, hand-crafted farce that the whole family will enjoy. Recommended for ages 4 and up
