Has anyone had a good puppeteer or storyteller for 3yearold party.
Any feedback or information would be appreciated. Lives in Boston
Thanks everyone that responded. I found several that were available for the date and in my price range from Brookline Community Theatre -shows/Puppets
Mrs. Bowlen a teacher at Hingham Nursery School is a great puppeteer. She also does all the shows at the Hingham Community Center.
Tony Toledo!!! look in the back of the Children's Paper for his info.. if you can't find it, let me know and I'll dig it out of my papers..
You could try calling the Puppet Showplace Theatre in Brookline, and asking them if they have any resources. Also the back of the Parent's paper can be helpful for kid's party entertainment.
Check out Suzy Magoozy, she lives North of Boston, but travels all over.
Hi A.,
Funny you should ask! Besides being a mom, I am also a professional storyteller, working primarily in and around the greater Boston area (with occasional forays up to Maine and New Hampshire, and south to Rhode Island). I am a member of LANES (League for the Advancement of New England Storytelling) and Professional Storyteller, on-line group for Storytellers, and the newly-formed group MassMouth, for Mass-based storytellers.
I specialize in telling folk tales from around the world, using lots of silly sound effects and funny faces, with the help of my young audiences, of course! In addition to telling in schools, day care centers, libraries and bookstores, I also enjoy performing at birthday parties. For the latter, I like to pick a theme - princesses, rabbits, pirates - that the birthday boy or girl is enthusiastic about, and tell stories accordingly.
I have experience performing for children 3 and up, and I lead a regular story-reading hour at a local bookstores for infants, toddlers and pre-schoolers. For more information on my work, feel free to visit my website

Feel free to drop me an e-mail if you have more questions!
Sincerely,
D.
P.S. Someone else mentioned Tony Toledo, a North Shore-based Storyteller, and I can't speak highly enough about him. He is a truly gifted Teller, and a wonderful person. Here is his website:
