The Nectarine Queen goes to pick peaches for the Jade Emperor's New Year banquet -- and finds only one, half-ripe peach. The Monkey King has been gobbling peaches instead of tending them! Will the Monkey earn his place in the Heavens? Or continue his mischief?

Join Margaret Moody for this episode of the traditional Chinese epic "Journey to the West" told with traditional Taiwanese puppets and choreography, which she studied with the I Wan Jan Traditional Hand Puppet Troupe in Taiwan.

And stay after the show for oolong tea and a chance to dance with a New Year lion!
