SOMETIMES THINGS CHANGE,
AND SOMETIMES PEOPLE CHANGE TOO!
Sometimes life takes an unexpected turn, and makes changes to everything in an instant. Even if you think there is no solution, you may already have the answer right under your nose, if you can just open our mind to new possibilities.
This puppet show is a new spin on the elves and the shoemaker, and is a mixture of rod marionettes, and shadow puppets.
HAVE YOU WANDERED INTO A FOREST RECENTLY?
What do you do when you prepare for a walk in the forest with your beloved dog, and he is nowhere to be found? Join us in a playful search for our dog, Banjo, who wandered off.
Join us on a playful adventure, filled with visuals, sounds, objects, and smells of the forest.
This tabletop puppet story is told with the use of a suitcase, and rod puppet marionettes. Little Red is delivering cake for her Granny’s birthday. She learns about the consequences of sharing personal information. This quaint tale uses rod marionettes, and pop-up book scenery.
We offer puppet story times that include reading stories with our Brook Buddy puppet pals. The experience includes audience interaction, songs, and giggles.
