The Los Angeles Breakfast Club is bringing friendship to Zoom! Join us for 95-year-old traditions, songs, and silliness, followed by a presentation from the beloved Bob Baker Marionette Theater about their exciting plans for 2021! Tickets on sale at: https://bobbaker.eventbrite.com

About the Bob Maker Marionette Theater: "In 1963, Bob Baker and partner Alton Wood transformed a run-down scenic shop near downtown Los Angeles into a family entertainment institution: Bob Baker Marionette Theater. Named an official Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 2009, the Theater has served over ONE MILLION children with original shows ranging from Tchaikovsky’s The Nutcracker to a musical journey through the history of Los Angeles.

After Bob’s passing in 2014 at the age of 90, the puppeteers and staff had to transition to being the stewards of both the past and the future of Bob’s beloved Theater. Each box that was packed and moved from our historic home at 1345 W. 1st Street to our new Theater in Highland Park carried a story of a puppeteer or fabricator who had contributed to the fabric of the Theater. From Morton Haack to John Leland, Tina Gainsboro to Ursula Heine… our Theater family numbers in the hundreds, if not thousands.

We have spent the past decade doing everything possible to preserve this essential part of puppet history, and an irreplaceable part of Los Angeles history as well. We look forward to another 56 years (at least!) of puppetry joy in LA and beyond."
