Mary Quinn Doyle, a Maine certified teacher, is willing to visit your school, fair, library, organization, recreational program, festival, and special event, with several hundred puppets for everyone to enjoy. If you click on the links on the top of the page, you can get an idea of the amazing collection of puppets.
Puppet workshops are offered where those in attendance are invited to work in groups to create a puppet show relating to one of Aesop’s Fables or Grimms’ Fairy Tales. A background of the fable or fairy tale is provided. Individuals are given the appropriate puppets for their story and supplies to create a backdrop for their particular story for the puppet theater.
The Traveling Puppet Extravaganza is truly unique in that instead of professional puppeteers working the puppets, those in attendance at the event have an opportunity to be the puppeteers!
