Have you ever
considered the
problems faced by a hen who marries a parrot? No? Not to worry! Jane
Stratten has. Get all the details in her song "Get That Big Beak
Out of My Face."
Maybe you've
wondered what makes a tree grouchy. (Don't we all?) Jane knows, and
she has just the solution in her song "Happy Little Tree."
Maybe you really
have wondered if there is an entertainer who can captivate children
of all ages, delighting and teaching them at the same time. Maybe you
wonder if the messages all parents want their children to hear - messages
of tolerance and respect and optimism and self-acceptance and caring
for others, will reach them or be drowned out in the din of competing
messages.
Jane Stratten
is that entertainer, and she knows the key to connecting with children:
make it fun! For ten years Jane has been inviting the children of South
Florida and now New York City, Long Island, and New Jersey, into her enchanted world, a world populated by singing puppets
with droll senses of humor. And for twenty years those children have responded
with excitement and affection. "Mesmerizing" is the word one
Boston area newspaper used to describe Jane's show when she did a summer
tour of New England.
