Benton County Fair & Rodeo

A county fair wouldn’t be complete without the competition pies, quilts, paintings, flowers, and vegetables. Every year at the Benton County Fair, the community’s gardeners, bakers and artisans of all ages come together to share their talents with our fairgoers.

About String and Shadow! String and Shadow is a performance company that creates incredible giant puppets and masks and weaves them into spectacle performances for all ages.

About Ship of Fools! String & Shadow’s 2023 show is called “Ship of Fools: A Giant Puppet Odyssey.” In it, three mimes set sail from the Port of Styx across the mythical boundary waters connecting the world of the living to the underworld. Aboard a mysteriously sentient ship, they encounter a world of beautiful and strange creatures: hermit crabs carrying houses on their backs, a ghostly humpback whale, and much more. Under layers of colorful fabric and dancing cardboard, Ship of Fools deals with themes of loss and acceptance, depicting a wondrous unknown and speaking to the power of friendship and love. It is brought to life by 3 mimes, 3 musicians, and 6 puppeteers.
