Written by Wayne Daigrepont for his Porta-Puppet Players, this original puppet musical comedy toured throughout the greater metropolitan New Orleans area for more than 8 years before hitting the stage of Teddy's Corner as a full-fledged production.
We meet young Henrietta, a bored little girl with nothing to do but listen to an old radio. The radio is so old that it only receives radio shows from 40 years ago! This night, it receives a radio play about a hunter...a pilgrim named Xavier. As Henrietta drifts off to sleep, the radio play comes to life as Xavier (Vatican Lokey) enters from the back of the theatre and the stage becomes The New World.
And what a world it is, filled with puppet stars like Cora the Cow, Rosemary Cooney, Lana Tuna, Ethel Mermaid, Marty Crawfish, and many more! For this production, two new songs were written, a compliment of two puppeteers was added, and a new human role-"Little Feather" was created for actress Casey Thompson.
