SCHOOL PROGRAMS
Penny has a range of school programs, from all school pageants to intimate table top shows and workshops. Let her mold the program to your lesson plan and teach your Core Curriculum in a way the students will not forget. Plenty of scaffolding!
AUDITORIUM PERFORMANCES
►Shows by professional puppeteers (suitable for large mixed age audiences.) Available with a related puppet making workshop.
►PUPPET PAGEANTS
With performing parts for 20 to 60 children (includes puppet preparation workshops)
CLASSROOM WORKSHOPS and PERFORMANCES
► How-to workshop following professional shows (in pop-up book making, puppet pantomime, etc.)
►Intimate SHOEBOX shows with audience participation followed by craft sessions in making simple puppets, and sometimes a re-enactment by the children using their newly made puppets.
►SHOEBOX SHOW workshops give teachers ideas on how to use a collection of found objects to involve the children dramatically in new stories and old so that the basic reading-readiness skills (listening, sequencing, remembering, comprehending, predicting, judging, etc.) are all stimulated and exercised in a thrilling and satisfying manner. The related art activities reinforce the learning and improve the fine motor skills
