FIRST BROCHURE

Right after the Psychedelic Madness of the MARKO PUPPET THEATRE jaunt, my (then) partner Holly Smith and I moved from Northern California to New England.We now dedicated ourselves to Children audiences, and began a heavy but wonderful touring schedule of schools and theatres, while also breaking into commercials and making guest appearances on local television shows.
We called ourselves THE PUPPETEERS and by the time we did puppets on the WGBH series "ALL ABOUT YOU". . .

. . . we had accumulated quite a large puppet family. This is our first brochure.
