La Maleta de Maebelle (Maebell's Suitcase)
by Glass Half Full Theatre

Sep. 28
Sunday

(via GHFTC)Maebelle lives in her treehouse and is an incredible hat maker. She’s been working hard ahead of the town’s annual hat contest when she befriends Binkle, a bird with a migration dilemma. He’s trying to carry too much on his flight south for the winter! As Maebelle generously offers her cherished suitcase from her own migration from Colombia, they delve into profound reflections on the significance of our possessions and memories. Through laughter and tears, Maebelle and Binkle help each other discover the beauty of remembrance and the liberating power of letting go.
 
Don’t miss this enchanting tale celebrating friendship, cultural heritage, and the universal lessons found within the stories of our lives. Featuring a two-person cast, various styles of puppetry, environmental themes, & Colombian music by Kiko Villamizar.
 
A bilingual adaptation of a celebrated and beloved Reading Rainbow picture book from Austin's own Glass Half Full Theatre.
