DIVERSITY Puppetry is an ancient art form with roots in folklore, religion and magic. It is performed in most reaches of the planet reflecting the folk traditions, mythology, and moral guidelines of diverse peoples. We celebrate cultural traditions from around the world and strive to reflect them in the stories we tell, the audiences we nurture,  the artists we work with, and the communities we serve.
