Shaver Marionettes... & Puppets! - Birthday Shows @ Your Locale

The Shaver Marionette's professional productions bring a world of enchantment to children of all ages. The child-at-heart enters a miniature land of fantasy and fairytale brought to life by the puppeteer’s expertise. Audiences delight in characters created by the award-winning artist from tales well known in many cultures. THIS PACKAGE INCLUDES   45-60 minutes of entertainment by marionettes or puppets for up to 30 guests, and WE BRING THE PARTY TO YOU! The miniature theater of marionettes is one of the most fascinating forms of puppetry for children to experience. The performance is complete with handcrafted stage, red velvet curtains, creative costumes, stringed puppets, colorful lighting, classical music, detailed scenery, and intricate props made to scale. The program is 45-60 minutes long (age dependent), consisting of a welcome and introduction, the live-voiced marionette performance, then an exciting interaction with the birthday child (photo opportunity), and follow-up demonstration of the marionettes. Audience members are each finally given a small paper puppet to take home, which they are shown how to both work and bring to life.  Programs are age-appropriate for 3 year old's through 4th Grade and families.   Select shows are also available in French. ***Please note that your reservation will be confirmed once you are contacted from Shaver Marionettes.
