Testimonial
A brilliant show and celebration of individuality and how people, or monsters, have their own distinctive learning techniques. A must see!
~ Hannah Blair Butler, Music Educator, MM Boston University
I’ve had a lot of great feedback from the groups who attended (Monster Intelligence) and loved it. You are amazing puppeteers and I was so impressed by the show.

Description
Melvin the monster is another year older but still not old enough for his license to scream. His birthday wish changes that and he's granted his wish on the condition of passing his test. Learning new information can be difficult for Melvin and he sets off on a quest to learn with his friend Red the Rat by his side. Populated by a cast of friendly, colorful monsters and original songs makes this a journey never to forget. As the story progresses, viewers will connect with different learning styles and feel empowered to embrace their own "monster intelligence."
