The mission of the Puppet Co. is to present professionally produced puppet theater reflecting excellence in both performance and visual experience as a means to excite the public about the potential of puppetry.
The Puppet Co. actively seeks people from all life experiences to become part of our organization. All current job and volunteer listings are consistently shared only through methods that do not use a pay wall, which can especially address issues in the system related to race and socioeconomic status. In our current company, we have a notable number of our staff and performers that identify as LGBTQIA+, speakers of many different languages, and a range of ages represented from 18 to 65.

Our showtimes range from 10am-3pm on Wednesday-Sundays.
