Frogtown Puppets’ Holiday Show Returns to The Grand

Ellsworth, Maine - The Grand continues its family offerings in December when the Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers present their annual take on everyone’s favorite holiday character, the Grinch, on Friday, December 5th at 6 pm and Saturday, December 6th at 1 pm (directly after The Downtown Ellsworth Christmas Parade). Admissions for this performance are $8 for adults and $6 for children 12 and under.

The Frogtown Mountain Puppeteers revisit their twist on the Grinch with typical Frogtown foibles and physical comedy.  The puppeteers are a small troupe based in Bar Harbor, Maine, and are comprised of three siblings – Erik Torbeck, Brian Torbeck, and Robin Erlandsen. Founded in 2000, Frogtown Mountain has performed at fairs, festivals, theaters, parades, schools, libraries, and some of the finest petting zoos on the East Coast, as well as the annual Great Ellsworth Puppet Festival every fall at The Grand. “The Grinch Family Holiday Event,” populated by the group’s hand-made glove, mouth, and rod puppets, is sure to please all ages.
