Each performance runs about 45-60 minutes long. Including original music, puppetry and actors as your guides, audiences will enjoy a roving performance traversing Pier 6’s lawns (from Pier 6 entrance to Liberty Lawn).

RSVP required as capacity will be highly limited to ensure an accessible and interactive engagement for children and their caregivers – link to come. Walkups will be accommodated as space allows.

In A Perfect Party for Trees, guests are welcome to try multi-sensory activities, participatory puppetry, and collective live music in a celebration of nature. Guided friends The Beekeeper, The Bear, and Ms. Branch, they create a gentle and playful space for their audience to dig like a badger, sing like a bird, and sit quietly like a tree to become a part of the forest itself. With no wrong way to celebrate, it will be the perfect party every time.
