Dear Directors, If you are looking for a great marionette presentation, contact Dan Raynor at Stevens Puppets from Elkhart, Indiana. I have known Dan for over 10 years and have been booking his shows. The children love his performances. The marionettes are fantastic and the programs are great! He is top-notch! Regards and Happy New Year, Stephanie Daniels Hartford Public Library
