The schools will not book any kind of an "entertainment" type show. Even the kindergarten classes not have tests etc. to prepair them for 1st grade. I have had to redesign my shows to fit preschool and day care centers. I used to have a great base of schools that would book shows year after year (I had 8 story shows that I would rotate). Then as the older principals retired and the new ones took over and the testings began, shows dropped off at an alarming rate. One year I toured for a school assembly agent working out of S. Carolina. We did months in Georgia with 2 or 3 shows a day usually in different schools. Could not do that any more. It's a whole new world trying to book schools now. -- JIM MENKE PUPPETS open your mind fantasies unwind www.jimmenkepuppets.com _______________________________________________ List address: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Admin interface: http://lists.puptcrit.org/mailman/listinfo/puptcrit Archives: http://www.driftline.org
