Grandma took me and Adam to Central Park. We explored in the park and then went to the Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre to see Hansel & Gretel. The Swedish Cottage Marionette Theatre was imported to the U.S. in 1876 as Sweden’s exhibit for the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia. The enchanting Swedish architecture and craftsmanship of the structure, suggestive of a model schoolhouse, caught the eye of Fredrick Law Olmsted, who brought it to Central Park in 1877. After the show we stopped for a treat. We went with Mommy to dinner at the Jekyll and Hyde Club and met her friend Greg. We enjoyed seeing the live shows with mad scientists and the spooky artifacts around the club.
