Cassie Payne (my daughter) & Mickey Stratil from Hands 2 Grow Puppet Productions presented at the UW-Whitewater conference and said it was a great forum with lots of awesome ideas!

On this Thursday (April 11), Cassie and I are doing a Fox Folk Marionette Show & Tell at the Memory Cafe event in Appleton.  We'll be showcasing the story of the marionettes inherited by Fox Valley Lutheran High School.  It's at the Atlas Cafe from about 2-4 p.m.  We are planning to offer a Memory Cafe Christmas show next November-December at Appleton's Thompson Center. 

On Friday, the Fox Folk Marionettes will be entertaining and audience of over 250 at Fox Valley Lutheran High School's Kinderfest 2013 for area kindergartners.  Our puppets give the opening devotion that emphasizes the message:  "I Can Do All Things Through Christ Who Strengthens Me!"

Appleton will be a hotbed of professional puppetry in the next couple month with Lion King and Warhorse coming to the Fox Cities PAC.  We have tickets for both and are excited to enjoy these awesome performances. Happy puppeting!
