About Beech Tree Puppets: Beech Tree Puppets brings meaningful stories with sensory-friendly and artful performances to all ages. Puppets and sets are lovingly hand-crafted with natural materials like wool, silk and wood. Beautiful singing and playing of simple instruments are interwoven into the performances, which are usually not amplified. Rich storytelling and a high-level artistic experience are guaranteed through our commitment to the story and audience, and by our professional training as singers and actors.
