Michelee Puppets for kids!

MicheLee Puppets was formed in 1985 by Tracey Conner to empower lives through the art of puppetry. Conner got her first taste of puppetry as a theatre student at Bowling Green State University. Upon graduation, she relocated to Orlando and recruited her former puppet partner, Michael Prazniak to help her start the company. They combined their middle names, Michelle and Lee, and MicheLee Puppets was born. MicheLee Puppets is a great family-friendly performance that is both entertaining and educational.

DRIP!

Performing Arts and Visual Arts are combined to create compelling sensory-stimulated shows, events and atmosphere that excite and move audiences.

Performers create and often become visual art themselves by blending dance, music, artistic mediums and props. DRIP redefines arts entertainment by interacting with paint, charcoal, sand, powder, fabric, culinary arts, blacklight paints, projected liquid light, watercolors and more.

DRIP is sensational and will leave you wanting more. Don't believe me? Here is a sneak peak of what you can expect!
