The Denver Puppet Theater

"Quirky and Fun Puppet Show!"

We finally made it to a puppet show at the Denver Puppet Theater and were delighted!  The atmosphere was very unique, from a garden with water features and lots of things to see to a shop and theater filled to the brim with puppets of every imaginable type.  My sensitive 5yo found some of the hanging puppets a bit scary, but loved the experience overall.  Your "ticket" to the show is a simple paper puppet which you're welcome to decorate before the show starts.  It was busy even on a weekday, so we recommend you show up a little early to have time to decorate your puppet and find the best seats.  The day we visited the one-woman puppeteer put on a quirky take of the Pinocchio with lots of interaction with the crowd.  After the show, kiddos were welcomed to play in several smaller puppet theaters throughout the room.   Don't miss this place!
