The Boothbay Harbor Memorial Library will be hosting a puppet show, “Lindsay & Her Puppet Pals,” on the library lawn on Saturday, June 27 from 3 to 4 p.m. The public is invited to bring their lawn blankets or folding chairs and enjoy the colorful, entertaining show. In the event of rain, the show will be held in the library’s main room.

According to Lindsay's website: "Lindsay’s comedic animation and timing, high energy, and uncanny knack for silly voices electrify young crowds, while mastery of gentle crowd control brings them back. Elementary schools, libraries, and early learning centers make up the majority of Lindsay’s clientele, to whom she makes annual visits.

"While Lindsay, also a fine artist, was preparing a collection of paintings for a show, she had a meeting with a kindred spirit and soon to be mentor — Martha Dana. Martha, a highly esteemed and beloved performer of over thirty years, on the brink of retirement, graciously agreed to sit for a portrait, and a few months later hand selected her new friend to take over her family of giant puppets. Now Lindsay is adding to the puppet family — starting with Gordon the Groundhog, star of ‘The Giant Turnip,’ Roxy the Triceratops, star of ‘Dinosaur Blues,’ ‘Robot Bob’ and ‘Meryl Sheep.’

"She believes the visual and interactive nature of puppetry can access the imaginations of even the youngest children.”
