An endearing children's book about a monster who's terrible at scaring is on stage at the Children's Theater Company, but the production is unlike anything they've put on stage before. It's called 'Leonardo: A Wonderful Show about a Terrible Monster'. The cast utilizes puppets, both paper and fuzzy puppets. They have a few different projector stations which are then broadcast on a large screen above the stage. None of the process is hidden, so they let you in on the magic of creating a show like this. This show is based on the Mo Willems book. The author actually approached this theater company, Manuel Cinema that's based in Chicago to come up with a way to bring his story to life.
