Schedule a Show or Workshop

Would you like to have a puppet show for your child's birthday party or your group's special event?  There is no age range for a puppet show; however, some shows are better for a young audience. Contact DHP to schedule a show.  Prices vary depending on the type of show(s) being performed; as well as, if a hands-on puppet building activity is included for the participants.  (The number of participants will also affect the price.)  Check out the list and explanations of the hands-on activities you can choose for your group, event or party.  (Some of the activities may not be appropriate for a party due to the amount of time needed to complete the build.) Please fill out the contact form to receive more information.
