burlguy41005 Posted December 5, 2014 Posted December 5, 2014 How did the relationship with Coney and the Krofft Brothers develop? I remember the old puppet theater at Coney and understand there still is a theater and puppet show at Six Flags in Georgia. Also, was the puppet show relocated to KI and performed in that Firestone inflatable structure? 1 Quote
upstop Posted December 7, 2014 Posted December 7, 2014 Sid and Marty Kroft were puppeteers that designed the Hanna Barbera's Banana Splits characters and thus their puppet show was incorporated into Coney Island along with the Hanna Barbera characters. The Firestone inflatable theater had marionettes, but I can't recall if they were associated with H/B. Edit....Apparently it was S&M Kroft theater. http://quasi-interestingparaphernaliainc.blogspot.com/2012/06/kings-island-brochure-1976.html 3 Quote
