Mother Falcon

After a successful run during our 2015-2016 season, the world premiere of Austin-based Lionheart Youth Theatre’s, Petra & the Wolf: A Texas-Based Adaptation of Peter & the Wolf, returns to the Stateside Theatre. This production unites the music of Universal Recording Artist Mother Falcon with the critically acclaimed puppetry of Glass Half Full Theatre. This new work inspired by the Prokofiev classic introduces young audiences to the journey of the fearless Petra. Her adventures are a showcase of female bravery and leave audiences walking away with a new sense of compassion and empathy. The show is a stunning piece of visual storytelling featuring magnificent puppetry set to a live score written and performed by Mother Falcon, a band NPR describes as "the little orchestra that can seemingly do the impossible."
