Celebrating our 35th Year BIRTHDAY SPECIAL { if out of our 45-minute radius travel fee might be added}

For over 35 years, Puppets Pizzazz has been successfully entertaining children of all ages at festivals, daycares, schools, camps, holiday parties, libraries, Pre-school graduation, and birthday parties. Each show is carefully geared to entertain, excite, and educate children from one year old to about 10 years old. The show is set up as a variety show with over twenty-five professional hand puppets used to perform nine funny songs and humorous skits. In between each act, an MC puppet comes out and tells jokes and riddles or educates around the presented theme. Each song or skit is only about two or three minutes long, so it is easy to hold the children’s attention including toddlers! What makes Puppets Pizzazz puppet shows different is that they take popular music from today’s artists and put a satirical spin on it. There are many different show themes to choose from such as an educational show [see above educational puppet tab] I Believe in Me, Outer Space show, Purim puppet shows, Harvest shows, Halloween shows, Winter shows, Christmas shows, Easter shows, End of the Year parties, Princess Party, Winter Party, Super Heroes party, Birthday Party, Health and Nutrition, Anti-Bullying, Let’s save our Environment, What Happens in the Night, and Different Cultures, just to name a few. They can even tailor a new show to your specific topic!

Thank you so much for making our conclusion of the summer truly enjoyable.We look forward to having you again. Many, Many thanks for a very special program.Enjoy the remainder of the summer.

PRIVATE BIRTHDAY PARTY

I wanted to let you know how much we all enjoyed the show you produced for my daughter's birthday party. Your skits were so clever and your jokes and dialogue seemed to be perfect for her age group (5 year old) Several mothers have commented to me that their daughters really liked the show. You kept them enthralled for almost an hour. How talented you are! Thanks!

NEWTOWN TOWNSHIP SUMMER CAMPS

On behalf of the children and staff of Newtown Township Summer Camps we would like to thank Puppets Pizzazz for visiting our camps this summer. Everyone had a fabulous time and enjoyed the performance immensely. We hope that the kids will relay to their parents how much fun they had watching the puppet show, so that Puppets Pizzazz may entertain them at their next birthday party. We will forward to you the article that was sent to the paper for your portfolio. Thank you again for visiting camp this summer. We hope to see you again next year.

ST. BEDE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

Puppets Pizzazz is an exciting and stimulating experience for students. All the classes at Saint Bede the Venerable School located in Holland, Pennsylvania, thoroughly enjoyed the show. Audience participation is encouraged and our students (ranging from Kindergarten to Grade Eight) responded by clapping and singing along. What a positive way to stimulate interest in theater, music, and good entertainment which this program offers.It is always a pleasure for me to welcome Puppets Pizzazz to Saint Bede the Venerable School and to recommend the program to other schools.

It is a fun, positive, affordable program offering audience participation which is suitable for a variety of ages.

HISTORIC BRISTOL DAY

Dear Ms. Barbara Tomlinson,

Whether this was your first time or your second time or your third time participating in Historic Bristol Day, your performance/enactment was so well received that the Historic Bristol Day Committee wants to thank you and extend an invitation to return next year. Historic Bristol Day will take place on Saturday October 16th, 2004.

PRIVATE BIRTHDAY  PARTY

Dear Puppets Pizzazz,

I am writing to you regarding my special needs son. My sister spoke with you about how your puppet show impacted my son 'Nicholas'.

'Nicholas has a rare neurological disorder called Tuberous Sclerosis. He has very serious health problems (brain tumors, seizures, kidney and heart tumors). In addition, he is developmentally delayed with behavioral issues. 'Nicholas' has always responded to music which is used at home and at school. But, until your show, we did not know that puppets could be so powerful and educational for him.

At home, we are using puppets daily to strengthen his pretend-play skills, express his needs more appropriately and for him to better understand the rules/following directions. At School, his speech therapist is using puppets during his sessions which helps to keep him on task and make the session more enjoyable and productive. In addition, she is using the puppets to teach 'Nicholas' about emotions and how to express feelings. His teacher is using the puppets as reinforcers for good behavior. It is amazing how he has responded so quickly to this art form. Luckily, my brother-in-law videotaped your show and 'Nicholas' watches it on a regular basis.

Thank you so very much for sharing your theatrical art with our family. Puppets Pizzazz has truly touched Nicholas in such a positive way.

Our Team

We're a fun group that comes from various backgrounds, but all share the common love for puppets!
