But thanks for asking.

I remember that puppeteers had previously posted having a difficulty with this situation and telling clients what to do with their free show offers, etc. However, I wouldn't suggest an angry response as a good way to conduct a business. So, in my quest to find a good and useful response that will also help to sell the show, I thanked them for the honor of the invitation and offered a very affordable discount from the regular price. I will post again and let you know if it works!
