DON'T JUST LOOK puppet show by HMTC

Filmed during the pandemic since no audience was allowed to enter a theater space, this film experiment allowed us to learn filming, close caption, and integrate sign language into video. Made with the grant from the Arts and Accessibility Grant delivered by the National Arts and Disability Center with the California Arts. Council. *The rental of this video is part of our continuous fundraiser. It is our online fundraiser and we thank you. Pay by credit card and scroll down our webpage to VIDEOS.

Don Quixote Marionette Puppet Show

This is a marionette puppet adaptation of Miquel Cervantes de Saavedra novel Don Quixote. The main puppets are expertly made by a world-famous puppet producing institution in the Czech Republic called CzechMarionettes. Petr handcrafted the Don Quixote and Sancho Panza marionettes. This show was originally performed live in October 2023 at the Lil' Brick Theater space, which is the home of Hanford Multicultural Theater Company. It was home-grown and produced by Hanford Multicultural Theater Company. Actual quotes from the novel itself are peppered in the production.
