My passion is storytelling through the arts of puppetry and song. My stories are designed to inspire the heart and soul, to ignite the magic and light that resides within every individual. They originate from personal experience, dreams, and visions; they speak in the languages of myth, legend, and fairytale....created from the secret places where truth lives and breathes. Each new story calls new characters into being, and they in turn bring the stories to life; we are co-creators. Our stories are of the Hero's Journey; tales of venturing into the unknown, finding courage, facing fears, and returning with newly realized "treasures" that are meant to be shared...gifts of sacred wisdom and universal truth. 

Our heroes and heroines invite one to enter the magic portal of the

imagination- to join in their quests, their extraordinary adventures, their challenges, and their discoveries, along the way meeting a dragon or a magician, a goddess of the mountaintop or Mother Earth, a raven-crow messenger or a flying horse, a farmer or a king, or a family of animals....all of them serving as teachers and guides along the path. I believe in the power of stories and the importance of their creative continuance. We have shared our stories in schools, theatres, community centers, town parks and festivals, fundraisers, fairs, and celebrations. 

Our puppetry galaxy spirals out from the mountains of Taos, NM.
