Anansi: Spiderman of Africa
Come enjoy a side-splitting selection of famous folktales from Africa starring Anansi the Spider, whose appetite always overrules his intellect, so he tries to trick other animals out of their food.But there's no free lunch for Anansi, because all of his schemes leave him hungrier than ever!
Anansi is one of the classic trickster characters in world folklore.
These comical African folktales are both entertaining and instructive; because he puts his own desires ahead of the needs of his community, Anansi often ends up exiled to the corner of the room.
Anansi, Spiderman of Africa was awarded the 2000-2001 Citation of Excellence from the American Center of the Union Internationale de la Marionette, the highest honor in American puppetry.
