The Museum of the Moving Image is set to host "Jim Henson’s Harmonious Hoopla," a limited-run musical revue featuring iconic songs and puppetry from across the legendary creator’s storied career.
Directing the production is John Tartaglia, known for his work on Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock, with musical direction provided by Paul Rudolph. Tickets are currently available through the museum’s website, with discounts offered to MoMI members.
