I don't see how any professional can afford to be without it." Jim Menke</p><p>"The Stevens' Course in Puppetry is a waste of time and money if you want to teach paper bag puppets to kindergarten children. But for anyone interested in learning professional know-how, it's the best value to be had." Jay Marshall</p><p>"Your Course is really good and it definitely made a change in the way I do things. Suddenly it is a very good feeing to create predetermined shows, to feel in CONTROL!!!" Mike Haruego.</p><br>
