"Great Artists . . . they are amazing with the children!" - PS 10, Brooklyn We also have an interactive IN-SCHOOL PRESENTATION for Pre-K classes ONLY of 25 or less per performance (multiple performances may be scheduled). |
". . . our visit to Brooklyn and the Puppetworks theatre was our highlight of a week long New York adventure. It brought together everything I love about theatre and connected with my own passion for small scale, tiny but powerful venues in big cities. Well done. May you have a great year." - Arji Manuelpillai |
