Penny and the Puppettes® is a live, interactive, musical-comedy puppet show designed for kids ages 1-8. Featuring the singing of NYU musical theatre graduates, Penny and the Puppettes® brings a genuine theater experience to your birthday party, school, library, camp, or other event. They offer 1 to 3 person shows! 

The Puppettes perform an original 30-50 minute show with all of their Puppette friends, using comedy and lots of audience participation to draw the children into the experience. 

Every show is customized and age-appropriate. In brief humorous sketches before each song, Penny and the Puppettes® empower the children to deal with shyness and peer-pressure, to care for nature, and to respect their own feelings and the feelings of others. 

Parents and teachers are pleased to have life lessons presented through music, laughter and fun.

The joy that I witnessed you bring to the little slice of heaven I'm lucky enough to check into everyday at Books of Wonder, that atmosphere you created, it defines the good times that you want to stay with you forever...As I said on that day, there was never more energy and happiness on the amazing kids' faces as there were while you were orchestrating them...Those most positive and genuine emotions truly make this world a better place as well as the lives that are lucky enough to have you shared with them...
