Why oh why do we keep holding festivals in venues which only hold the registered festival attendees?

Is puppetry a secret ritual that we need to hide from the eyes of the public???

Do we NOT want to encourage people to see some of the finest of our craft performing???

Look at the list of performers: Coad Canada Puppets, Paul  Mesner Puppets, The Huber Marionettes, Carter Family Marionettes, Grey Seal Puppets, Alan Cook, Robert Burn's Toy Theatre, Pix Smith of Dallas Puppet Theatre, Lynne Jennings, Nick Barone & Rose Sage Barone.

A truly World-class lineup all performing in a theatre that holds 135 people, with a hoped-for 100 attendees.

What Oh what are we thinking???
