Apple Butter by James Reaney is a warm, whimsical marionette play that stirs the senses and the imagination. Set in a small country kitchen where the scent of simmering apples fills the air, this charming tale follows a cast of lively characters—children, elders, and a few mischievous spirits—as they share stories, settle old scores, and discover the simple magic of community. Rich in folk humour, playful language, and gentle wisdom, Apple Butter is a celebration of tradition, memory, and the small rituals that bind us together—perfect for family audiences, school productions, and anyone who remembers the taste of home.
