What Kind of
Storyteller
Are You?
Puppet kits, shadow screens, felt boards, and voice-throwing gadgets — everything you need to turn a bare stage into a living world.
The Transformation
Every bare stage is a
story waiting to happen.
Drag the slider. See what our kits do to an empty room.

From the Field
Stories about the
people who tell stories.
“I run summer reading programs for 200 kids across three branches. The Shadow Theatre kit turns any conference room into a stage. Kids who won't sit still for a picture book will watch a shadow dragon for twenty minutes.”

“My nonverbal clients couldn't engage with traditional therapy tools. The Quiet Room Collection changed everything — the weighted puppet gives them something to hold, and the emotion cards give them a way to point instead of speak.”
Marcus Feld

“I busk in town squares from Lisbon to Ljubljana. The Wandering Bard Kit fits in my rolling case with room left for lunch. I've funded three months of travel on marionette shows alone.”

Your stage is
waiting for you.
Every marionette in our shop was once just wire and wood. Every felt board was once blank. What you build from here is your story.
