First Christian Church • 927 Faraon Street • St Joseph, MissouriShow: 1:30 PM


As part of our Education Series, we are bringing the Mesner Puppet Theater and their presentation of The Cat Came Back. Based on the folk song made popular by Fred Penner, this performance tells the tale of Mister Johnson and a mysterious cat who keeps returning to his doorstep. Mister Johnson tries everything he can to get the cat to go away, from giving her to a pilot to sending her into outer space. The cat, however, keeps coming back!


Children in attendance will receive a packet to make their own puppet at home.


Adults: $6.00 • Children: $6.00
