Puppet delight! Children gather around to watch the "Princess and the Pirates!" puppet show at Malibu Library.

 

Franklin Haynes Marionettes came to Malibu Library on Thursday, Sept. 7, to entertain some of Malibu’s youngest residents, ages 5-12. The puppet show—“The Princess and The Pirates!”—followed the story of a princess and a pirate. To free the princess from the pirate Jack Cannonball and Skull Island, her brother John, the pirate dog Treasure and their friends must get Cannonball to laugh. The child-friendly marionette puppets used to tell the story stand at around 18-20 inches. The show was an event sponsored by the Friends of Malibu Library.
