Current Shows
Most of our shows are non-storyline variety act shows, appropriate for all ages. Each show contains over a dozen different large, colorful puppets, with magicians, trapeze artists, silly animals, and tightrope walkers!

Each show is between 35-40 minutes long, with audience participation an integral part of each show.
​
We come complete with lights, sound system and puppet stage which has been built with larger venues and performance areas in mind; all we need is an 8' x 10' or so space and access to electricity.
​
Live performances are an experience for children that just can't be duplicated in today's world of technology- often one of our shows is a child's first introduction to a theatrical experience.
