Barefoot Puppet Theatre
News: Is it really August? We have had a fabulous summer season and are enjoying a few weeks in our hometown of Richmond, Virginia. We just returned from great performances in the Boston area at The Puppet Showplace Theatre -- a gem of a theatre!
As September approaches, we are hard at work building our newest show: Little by Little. We look forward to a fabulous Fall!
Barefoot Puppet Theatre tours award-winning puppet shows to theatres, schools, libraries, children's museums and more! Our shows bring to life world folktales, classic tales with a twist and original works with imaginative scripts that are well researched and fun! Educators, students, librarians, and theatre directors give enthusiastic reviews of our touring programs each year and invite us back again and again.
We are based in Richmond, Virginia, where we build all of our puppets and staging. We tour extensively and have performed all over the US and into Canada. We love performing for new audiences and are doubly pleased to be invited back again and again for return engagements. If you have questions, comments, or suggestions, please contact us. We are always thrilled to hear from you!
