Many
cultures share a holiday in late December — a return to the light, whether symbolic
or literal, after months of shrinking days. Puppeteer and scenic design professor
Miguel Romero takes this impetus for revelry and combines the traditions into
a delightful, carnival-esque atmosphere in his new puppetry piece, Solstice.
Created by Romero with students from the UMass Department of Theater and with
new music by Amherst College music professor Eric Sawyer, this is intended as
a celebration for the whole family.
