The Ugly Duckling

Red Herring Puppets has created an original musical version of the classic folktale!

A duckling is born who looks different than its siblings, and is deemed “ugly” as a result. The duckling is treated cruelly, and endures loneliness and hardship as it navigates the world. As this classic tale reminds us, though, real ugliness is not the duckling’s appearance, but in the mean and prejudiced behavior of others. His inner sweetness and determination are encouraged by an old woman, a cat, and a hen who help discover his true self.

Join us for this lively musical puppet journey in which an “ugly duckling” finds the place where he belongs!

For Scoundrels and Scamps of all ages!
