About the Show

Puppet Playtime is a fun, interactive performance experience designed for very young children and their grown ups. In each hour-long session, a friendly performer guides kids through free play, sing-a-longs, interactive stories, imagination games, and other activities. Puppet pals join in the fun all along the way. Puppet Playtime is a great introduction for toddlers to the experience of live performance. We provide a welcoming "lights-on" flexible environment for children and caretakers alike!

Audience members have only great things to say: "Harry is so great! Out of all our weekly activities this is by far the best one!" and “Harry did such an excellent job of helping the very young children feel comfortable in the space. . . and entertaining them and the adults! We are still talking about it!”

Infants & preschoolers, with their grown-ups
