EXPANDING READERSHIP
Puppetry artists need audiences, and they need educated and informed audiences. They also need directors and producers with an increased appreciation for the creative opportunities to mix puppets and people in theatre, film, and video. PUPPETRY INTERNATIONAL was founded in 1994 and is designed to bridge the interests of puppetry professionals and their audiences. As the lines blur among actors' theatre, mime, dance, masks, and puppetry, PUPPETRY INTERNATIONAL is of interest to a continually expanding readership. Published twice a year, PUPPETRY INTERNATIONAL is distributed to specialty newsstands nationally and is available at theatres, puppet centers, and festivals.
The Editors and the Board would sincerely appreciate your assistance in securing or selling advertising. If you have ideas or know of potential vendors, Contact: Honey Goodenough
