According to a synopsis, the show follows the titular Pete as he navigates everyday adventures with optimism, creativity and his trademark cool demeanor.
Through original puppetry and catchy music, the production emphasizes themes of “curiosity, resilience and the joy of staying true to oneself,” all of which are staples of the beloved book series, said the Center for Puppetry Arts.
In addition to the show, the Center for Puppetry Arts will also host a special appearance by James Dean, the co-creator and illustrator of “Pete the Cat,” on Saturday, Jan. 31. Dean will be signing books following the day’s 1 p.m. performance (a separate add-on ticket is required to attend the book signing event).
Tickets for “Pete the Cat” and performance schedules are currently available on the Center for Puppetry Arts’ website.
