What folks have to say about Jilly Puppets
Jilly of Jilly Puppets has the infectious, positive energy of five-year-old combined with the fluid movement of a tigress and the creativity of a garden of flowers perpetually blooming. She channels all this into her many puppets, bringing them to life in a way that fills the stage completely, even though she's the only human in sight. A joy to behold!
-Skye Leith Cirkus Fiasco
Jill has the imagination to make everyday objects come to life - an inanimate scrap of felt, a discarded necklace, a ping pong ball becomes a tropical fish, a body-suited Zebra, an ethereal butterfly. Her puppets are bold and they inhabit a world only a child could fabricate and at which every adult marvels.
-Naomi co-founder/director Rivertown Artist's Workshop
Jilly Puppets rocks! Her puppetry expresses a deep commitment to
entertaining and educating young children - a noble pursuit. I love
how she weaves in creativity and silliness with a message. Go Jilly Puppets!

"Jill is an energetic performer whose upbeat, engaging style is
infectious! Her puppet shows encourage children to move, sing, and
laugh… the very activities that children love to do, but that too
often get pushed aside in our busy world. Jill always draws a big
crowd when she performs at our Nature Center, and she works hard to
tie in seasonal themes that reinforce our mission to connect people to
nature. Plus, she’s just so much fun!"
