Virtual Field Trip Performances

February's Show: Jack and the Beanstalk

Field trips can create lasting memories and foster a love of learning, but transportation costs, volunteer coordination and permission slips can make them a hassle. 

Here’s a great way to take your class on a virtual visit to Puppet Art’s Studio without all the fuss.  Students will enjoy a live-streamed, interactive puppet performance and then participate in a virtual studio tour to see how the show was created and performed.

To join in on the fun simply choose a date and show from the list below and click on the “reserve your spot” button to register your class. (See Frequently Asked Questions.)

If you’d like to book a live, virtual performance just for your class or school on a date and time of your choice, you can book that here: In Person and Virtual Shows.
