If you’re looking for something to do this cold, (possibly) snowy weekend, head over to St. Ann’s Warehouse (38 Water St. at Old Dock St.) for Labapalooza, a “mini festival of new puppet theater from The Lab.” Shows are running thru to the 1/11 at 8pm on Friday and Saturday, and additional shows on Saturday at 2pm and Sunday at 4pm.

Ring in the New Year with a quirky display of live works-in-progress and stop motion puppet animations from The Lab. Now in its 11th year, Labapalooza! embraces new avant-garde puppet works ranging from a 19 sleepwalker to a space pioneering monkey; from Ralph Waldo Emerson to Jewish mysticism.

Cost of admission is $20 for one program or $30 for both. For more information or to buy tickets, contact St Ann’s Warehouse.
