</b>BREWSTER, MA The Cape Cod Museum of Natural History presents “A
Passion for Birds” with performance artist Henry Lappen <b>Tuesday, July
7, 2015 at 1:00pm</b>.<br>
<br>
Created and performed by Henry Lappen, “A Passion for Birds” is a
comic, interactive, educational show that uses realistic handmade masks
to explore how different birds have evolved different shapes and
behaviors to adapt to their environment. Participants get a chance
to try on the masks and soar as Eagles, swim as Puffins, and stalk as
Herons.<br>
<br>
Henry Lappen has been performing comedy for over 30 years. He has
been an avid student of nature since childhood. In this show, he
combines his love and knowledge of birds, with his comic timing, and
artistry in mask making and performing. Henry studied mime, mask
and clowning at California’s Dell’Arte School of Physical Comedy.
He is a member of the Hampshire Bird Club and Northeast Hawkwatch.
Henry was a Great Blue Heron in a past life.<br>
<br>
The show is sponsored by the Cape Cod Museum of Natural History and the
Brewster Cultural Council. <br>
<br>
The presentation will be held at the Museum Tuesday, July 7th at
1pm.<br>

Free with Museum Admission<br>
