String and Shadow in the schools
Have String and Shadow visit your elementary school

Starting in the fall of 2025, String and Shadow will offer a school performance geared toward K-5 students. If you are interested in booking us at your school, please reach out here.
Dr. Menagerie's Fauna Fantastique
An adaptation of String and Shadow's 2021 show Fauna Fantastique, this colorful performance runs about 45 minutes and can be performed in school auditoriums.
Inspired by the form of television nature shows (ei. Planet Earth), Fauna places the eccentric Dr. Menagerie as its guide, inviting young audiences on a tour of forgotten and unusual species. First, up into the clouds where the cosmic geese build their nests, then shrinking down to the forest floor for the annual Fungi Fashion Show, and finally delving into the dream-world to find the magical, illusive, nightmare eating Baku.
