I might. If you are located outside of Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Loudoun or Prince William VA, email me at [email protected] with your location and show details and I will let you know.

What ages do you suggest these shows for?

I suggest Kids Nature Shows for ages 1-7.

I suggest limiting the maximum number of students in indoor programs to 20 or fewer. Outdoor shows can have as many as your jurisdiction allows. Virtual shows have no limit on the number of viewers.

YES!! I LOVE to create custom nature shows. Just let me know your topic and I’ll make a great show just for you.

Shows are generally 30 minutes in length, however, depending on the ages of the audience and the number of questions, the show may be slightly longer or shorter. I also offer 15 minute shows for toddlers.

What Covid-19 precautions are you taking for in-person shows?

During in-person shows, I wear a mask at all times and stay at least 6 feet or more away from others.  I also bring my own table and PA system with extra-long extension cords so my setup is contactless. I request that shows are either performed outside (preferred), or if indoors, in as large a room as possible.
