The Greenshow Through the Years

The Greenshow was created in the early years of the Festival by the late Barbara Adams, wife of Festival founder Fred C. Adams. She was adamant that there be nightly pre-show entertainment that featured music, dancing, and––for many years––a Punch and Judy puppet show. Today the tradition of singing, storytelling, dancing, and audience participation on the green continues.
