Upcoming Shows & Events
While the inside of our historic building is currently closed due to COVID-19 and we consider how to safely re-open our doors, The Great Arizona Puppet Theater is offering drive-in entertainment!
Our weekend drive-in shows are presented on a limited basis to keep our puppeteers safe in the summer heat and to ensure a good view of the show for everyone who comes down. We plan to add more performances when the weather cools down. See below for all details and call 602-262-2050 x 0 today to reserve your spot!
Drive-in show schedule is subject to change due to weather conditions and the health and safety of our puppeteers. Reservations and pre-payment are required.
