ABOUT DOW KIDS:

Our specialty is taking myths, legends & fables and restoring them to what the author, culture or storyteller originally intended by making them into inventive table-top, shadow & hand puppet shows! Each show is unique and takes a new spin on the classic tale. We revel in really challenging kids and their ideas of what a "puppet show" is. Most of our shows reveal the puppeteers and mix a wide range of puppetry and acting styles together. We hope to invigorate and stimulate while we entertain!
Please email with any questions about our shows or about pricing!

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT DOW KIDS:

“Energetic, inspired, with a perfect blend of wit & charm.”
– Liz Leahy, Popcorn and Puppet Festival

"The (trash) Little Mermaid was delightful--full of fun and imagination--without losing track of the larger messages of the play.  We loved it!  It riveted the attention of the five-year olds and their accompanying adults for 30 minutes!"
– Susan Mehlman, mother of Ann

"How the Earth Got Its Color is an energetic retelling of an Aztec creation story. Through story, song and plenty of humor, DOW Kids brings this entertaining tale to life. The beautiful staging and imaginative puppets are a feast for the eyes. We love their inventive approach to puppetry!"
– Liz Joyce, Goat on a Boat Theater
