Legacy Series Presents: Oma

A joyful story of celebration, generations, and storytelling in yarn

Oma says that knitting is not just pom pom hats and sweaters. Oma's knitting contains whole stories! This family show by Shoshana Bass and Jana Zeller is an intergenerational tale that revolves around Grandma or “Oma." It is her birthday and all are preparing for the celebration. While the grown-ups manage work phone calls, playdate logistics and other such tasks, the children get into mischief with party decorating, present wrapping, and cake baking. Finally they all gather around for one of Oma's stories told in yarn. One character emerges from the tangle of wool and nearly ruins the party. But not to worry, all ends well at Oma's house.

Conceived and Performed by Jana Zeller and Shoshana Bass
Directed by Ines Zeller Bass
Music composed and recorded by Molly Gawler and the Gawler Family Band
Created with the support of The Jim Henson Foundation and the Puppeteers of America Rose Endowment Fund
