Roving Puppets Is an interactive display presented by 'Ranger Ros', where audience members get to pat, hug and feed a variety of animal puppets, whilst learning about nature. This is a great show for any occasion as the puppeteer can freely mingle with a crowd or remain in a designated location. Audience members are also welcome to have their photos taken with the puppets. Price: AU$100.00 per hour. A deposit of $10 is payable at time of booking to secure the performance date. The deposit will be refunded if the performance is cancelled by the performer (for example: due to illness or injury). Ranger Ros' World Tour Ranger Ros takes children on an entertaining tour, meeting cute & cuddly, interesting & exotic animals (puppets) from around the world. Along the way, children learn about their habitats, food and special features, and an appreciation for wildlife. Price: AU$120.00 for a 30-45 minute performance. A group photo (eg. Class Photo), with a favourite animal from the show, is certainly welcome, along with a question & answer session. |
Story Time Storyteller Ros loves to read stories to children, but when you add puppets, props, costumes and a little magic, stories come to life. Children are asked to participate in re-enacting the story as it is being read, by operating puppets, making sound effects and working with props. Price: AU$150.00 for a 40-50 minute performance. There are several options for Storytime shows. Make a request for a Show list via the email link ros@wildpuppets.au
