Welcome to our 13th season of School Outreach! We look forward to bringing you fantastic programs that will engage and enrich your students.
This year we will again be providing funding for bussing reimbursement through several grants including funding from CORE (Champions of Rolla Education). But please remember that we are becoming very popular these days, especially with our ability to reimburse for bussing and many of our shows sell out. Please sign up as soon as possible after the opening reservation date in order to ensure availability. Booking forms are available here.

Butterfly: The Story Of A Life Cycle
|
Back by popular demand! This production follows the transformation of a caterpillar, which hatches from its egg under the leaf of a milkweed plant, forms a chrysalis and emerges as a beautiful monarch butterfly. As winter approaches, this butterfly makes the long journey to Mexico to hibernate, wakes in the spring and lays her eggs to start the whole cycle over again. Larger than life puppets and fun danceable tunes make this show a delight for all. Visit Hudson Vagabond Puppets Online Watch a clip from the show!
