The Baffo Box Show by Modern Times Theater

For nearly two decades, the Winter Sunshine Series has been a warm beacon during Vermont’s coldest months—bringing laughter, imagination, and shared experiences to audiences of all ages. Sandglass Theater invites families, friends, and neighbors to gather once again this February and celebrate the joy of puppetry together.
Performed in a one-of-a-kind suit-stage, this show packs classic hand puppetry, Dadaist ventriloquism, and stand-up comedy into a cardboard box and delivers it, with impeccable timing, live on stage.
Inside the box are the Baffos — two slapstick chaps who keep the sun, moon and everything else running on schedule. From the moment the lid opens, audiences are captivated as the Baffos juggle and dance their way through the day’s chores, despite the undeniable evidence that their world is changing.
A daring work of puppetry and object manipulation, full of beautiful images, junk music sonatas, and Modern Times Theater’s unique brand of all ages comedy. This re-envisioning of classic hand puppet forms is digital entertainment as it was meant to be: two hands, ten fingers, and no camera tricks.

Performances at 11am and 2pm.
