Slappy's Puppet Playhouse offers some of the best children's entertainment in the Dallas Fort Worth area. We specialize in magnificent European style marionette shows featuring unique handcrafted puppets fashioned by our own in-house artists. In addition to these wonderful full-scale string puppet productions, we also present an amazing Vaudeville style variety show, complete with the hilarious comedy of real Ringling Bros. clowns, professional magicians, and special cameos by some of Dallas' best known children's entertainers. Visit the Shows page for show dates and times.
