About Dawn and the Marionettes

I made my first marionettes and put on a show when I was age Eleven. Years later when I had children, I created several shows and performed at local festivals. Once again I am honing my skills and creating my best work. Many of my marionettes have seven to nine strings. I create a soundtrack and prerecord voice over’s. My shows are catered to adults and children. I hope my marionettes can suspend the onlookers moment of reality in a fun way, so that the audience is actually at play with me. I also enjoy doing a Q and A, after the show for schools, camps and any organization.
