Paperhand Puppet in our midst

If you don't already know, Donovan Zimmerman Of Paeprhand Puppet Intervention is bringing an adult iteration of his and their genius back home to Saxapahaw this and next weekend. The puppet show is called The Hungry Ghost. They opened to great reviews and sold out shows in Durham for two weekends. Their new home is host to this inauguralish performance. Donovan has been a real friend and champion of what we do here. I could not begin to describe how this considerable personage has been an intimate part of our success. He is our friend in all senses of this sacred term.

In their honor we are providing special dinner items each night of the performances. As many of you know we have amped up our dinner offerings anyway. Occasionally we have offered some more refined dishes as we prepare for the launch of the pub and restaurant. The next two weekends will be a display of our attempt to match their amazing artistic endeavor. We are humbled at their brilliance. There will be seafood, local beef and pork dishes as well as some nice vegetarian fare, Lamb, fun dinner salads and special soups. Look for a morphing menu here and in the weekly email (sign up at the store).

The shows start at 8pm in the community center; dinner begins at 5. There is limited space in the store for sit down meals but we will figure it out. There is some outdoor seating and carry out is quite welcome.
