The 3 Bears Holiday Bash

City Parks Foundation is proud to announce the launch of The Three Bears Holiday Bash, a new marionette production beginning November 17, 2009 at the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre in Central Park.

The Three Bears Holiday Bash is a variety show that celebrates the holiday season in song, dance, and puppetry. This production quickly becomes a comedy of errors when Baby Bear invites Santa to star in Mama and Papa Bears’ annual holiday show. Drawing from the stories of Hanukkah, the Night Before Christmas, and Kwanzaa, The Three Bears Holiday Bash is a great way to get in the season spirit.

Show times for The Three Bears Holiday Bash, beginning Tuesday, November 17, 2009 are Tuesday through Friday at 10:30 a.m. and 12:00 p.m., with an additional performance at 2:30 p.m. each Wednesday; and Saturday and Sunday at 1:00 p.m. The production will conclude running through January 3, 2010.

Reservations are required. Tickets are $5/children and $8/adults. Group rates are available for schools and other large groups. For reservations, group rates, and information on birthday parties, please call 212-988-9093.

The Cottage is located in Central Park at 81th Street and Central Park West, just south of the Delacorte Theater. For more information, please visit www.CityParksFoundation.org.
