Marionette Puppet Shows

New Bern Puppets presents marionette performances spanning a wide range of genres to meet the needs and interests of our audience of any age.

Fee for shows is dependent on the number of performances, hours, and travel time. Please contact Dennis for more information. New Bern Puppets carries a $1,000,000 general liability insurance policy. Dates are not confirmed until signed contract received (nonrefundable deposit may be required depending on season).

Fantasy

New Bern Puppets has done shows featuring characters such as Harry Potter, Hansel and Gretel, a witch, a mummy, the Frankenstein monster, the Great Pumpkin, Blackbeard’s ghost, and more. Ask us about bringing a fairy tale to life or inquire about having a custom show created.

Historical

We have many 18th Century characters and do various Colonial and US Revolutionary War shows. Many are based on Colonial North Carolina history with a focus on Tryon Palace. For example, we have a show featuring President George Washington’s Southern Tour in 1791 but scripts can be adjusted to cover events elsewhere.

Biblical

Are you a church group interested in a puppet performance based on the Bible? New Bern Puppets has a wide range of Biblical marionettes and have given Christmas and Easter shows as well as shows focused on the Parables of the Lord and from the lives of Jesus, the prophets, and other Biblical figures. Ask us about presenting a Bible story to your church youth or congregation.
