Good Hearted Entertainment
Good Hearted Entertainment creates performances that combine puppetry and clowning to educate and delight. The company was founded by Honey Goodenough. Word Play was a Puppet Showplace Incubator show, and is inspired by Honey’s experience learning to manage her own dyslexia and literacy challenges. Word Play was co-created with Harry LaCoste, a local puppeteer who audiences may know from Puppet Playtime, and features music arranged & composed by Paul Watkins, PST’s former Box Office Manager!
To experience this play on words, reserve your tickets to Word Play, April 16 & 17.
