I’m 71 years old and my whole life I’ve loved puppets. I was very excited when I retired here to learn that the Center for Puppetry Arts is just an hour drive away. I’ve enjoyed the shows there and enjoyed the museum exhibits. My son took me and his family there for my birthday several years ago before I became a member. My grandchildren, who are in their 20s, were amazed to see your production of Rudolph. It’s like a Broadway show!

Most kids have a movie or show that they’ll play a thousand times over and never get tired of it. My mom bought me a special DVD of Paul Bunyan and the Tall Tale Medicine Show when I was young, and it was my favorite movie… I’m 16 now… [but] the things I’ve learned from you are never going to leave me, and I’m all the better for it. You showed a bratty and mean kid how to find wonder in the world. Thank you for giving me the ability to fall in love with everything. Thank you for inspiring me to try new things. Thank you for raising me to be a good person. But most of all, thank you for the magic.
