We're working with the brilliant Theresa Linnihan, director of The Puppeteer's Cooperative and this show will take place over three weekends at the lovely and cozy Green-Wood Chapel (history is everywhere here...the Chapel was built in 1911 by the same firm that built New York's Grand Central Station and that's the same year the bell plunged into the water", says Gene Ritter, diver who found the Dreamland Pier Bell and who will have the bell as part of this wonderful event.
