“Every story is kept short, the plot line
clear and simple, and the characterizations vivid. The humor
is never heavy handed. It respects the children’s intelligence.”
--Sy Syna, “Weekend”
Penny Jones stands in front of one of her huge
puppet assembly show sets.
Young students love puppets. Penny Jones takes the
art of puppetry to its ultimate expression with her Early Childhood
Puppet Theatre production of
Peppi and the Pop-Up Dragon,
a delightful story presented for large student audiences in the
auditorium.
This show can stand alone or be a great introduction to an entire puppetry
program residence, including:
Professional Puppet Shows
Classroom workshops
Professional development for adults
Students increase their literacy while enjoying
the artistry of an amazing puppet show. Teachers see a
model in the assembly show, and in other classroom
Shoe-Box shows which they can aspire to.
And Penny shows them simple and
easy puppet-making in her staff development workshop.
See Peppi and the Pop-Up Dragon puppet show with your students.
Then learn
how she puts such a show together in a staff development.
You'll find out how to do your own shows with your students,
quickly, simply and easily. As you develop your own library of books, develop
your own shoe box puppet shows for each classic fairy tale and modern
favorite.
2 assembly performances of Peppi and the Pop-Up Dragon
in a day: $1,515

"The... puppets are winsome, the sets uncluttered,
the story line direct..." -- Ellen Rodman,
