In Brooklyn's Park Slope neighborhood, children's entertainment comes with strings

Every weekend, at 12:30 or 2:30 p.m., children gather on foam mats and colored blocks to watch wooden renditions of The Tortoise and the Hare, Pinocchio and Aladdin for exactly 45 minutes - the length of one side of a cassette tape. "This isn't a screen! It's for reals happenin' back there!" Alyssa Parkhurst, a 24-year-old puppeteer, says before each show. For most of the theater's patrons, this is their first experience with live entertainment.
