presented by Atlanta Children’s
Theater, will be in Jackson on

Punch and Judy is a play
based on the puppets Punch and
Judy, but staged with live actors.
The Atlanta Children’s Theater,
Inc. is presenting the world pre
miere of this brand new play by
Aurand Harris. It is a musical
comedy, a farce with song and
dance.
Punch and Judy are the hero
and heroine of the traditional
English puppet play. They are
based on one of the famous pup
pets Pulecinelia and Punchinello,
known as Polichinelle in French.
In 1662 Punchinello was brought
to London and popularized where
he became known as Punch. In
1700 Punch was brought to Co
lonial America. Most often
Punch and Judy shows were pre
formed by roving puppeteers in
portable puppet theaters outside.
Punch is traditionally a hooked
nosed, mischievous grinning cha
racter with a hump, who wears a
scarlet and yellow costume, and
carries a stick. He is always
quarreling with people. He is
loud and boisterous. He whacks a
foe in every act. The show is
built up by jokes, surprises,
fights, song, dance and riotous
slap stick fun.
and all the trimmings will be
served from five to eight o’clock
on an “all you can eat basis.”
Mr. O’Neal said that tickets
will soon be available from all
Kiwanis members at a price of
SI.OO for adults and 50c for
children.
