About the event

Billy Goats Gruff & Other Stuff Puppet Show by award-winning puppeteer, David Stephens
The History Museum of Mobile is delighted to announce "Billy Goats Gruff & Other Stuff," an award-winning puppet show by David Stephens, former Muppet performer on Sesame Street!

In this one-man performance utilizing hand, rod, and glove puppets, Stephens retells classic fairy tales as well as telling a few of his own original tales. You'll see what happens when three billy goats try to cross over a bridge belonging to a greedy troll in The Three Billy Goats Gruff. Parker Pig encounters some good luck when he stumbles over a watering can in a retelling of The Three Little Pigs. One of Stephens' original stories, The Two Farmers, involves Farmer Frick and Farmer Frack and how they learn to work together to make a pot of stew. All this, plus the antics of some silly chickens, in Billy Goats Gruff and Other Stuff.

The Center for Puppetry Arts hosted an 8-week run of over 100, virtually sold-out, performances of this production in 2002. Since then, the Center has hosted two equally successful revivals in 2004 and 2007. In 2005, this show was honored by receiving a Citation of Excellence from UNIMA-USA (Union Internationale de la Marionette): the equivalent of an Academy Award in the puppetry world. Originally developed in 2001, this show has entertained both children and their parents since that time.

The 1-hour performance will be held upstairs in the Hearin-Chandler Auditorium at the History Museum of Mobile at 10:00am on Wednesday, June 18th, 2025. Admission is FREE for members and ages 0-4, and $5.00 for non-members ages 5 & up. Guests should arrive early to check in and seating will be open starting at 9:30am. Chairs will be limited, so please plan to bring a towel or blanket to sit on the floor during the performance. No photography or videography will be allowed inside the auditorium.
