4worldlovers:
The Great Arizona Puppet Theatre welcomes you! We are open year round, performing shows at the theater Wednesday through Sunday.


This year the Great Arizona Puppet Theater is turning 40. It's over the hill! So, we are throwing a party since it has lasted this long as a small non-profit company. That means this theater is indeed the 8th Wonder of the World. We're having a spectacular gala to properly celebrate this achievement. Click here to learn more about the 8th Wonder of the World Gala, and click here to order tickets. You don't want to miss it.


See below for what's coming next or look here for the full schedule of upcoming shows.


Check out our Imagine This Project. This creative project gets the kids of Kenilworth Elementary School to write stories and craft puppets like professionals.

A favorite fairy tale is back on the big stage, performed with rod puppets and projected scenery! Come enjoy this classic story about a spoiled princess who learns important lessons about friendship and keeping her promises. Singing and dancing to original music make this a great show recommended for ages 5 and up. Download the Study and Activity Guide here.

Tickets must be purchased in advance: reserve here or call 602-262-2050 x 4.

We are so proud of the work we do with our small staff of professional puppeteers and theater artists and we are excited to re-open our doors after over a year! Throughout the worst of the pandemic, we provided drive-in shows to families who needed a break out of the house to see live entertainment. While we are so happy to return indoors, we are still facing a large loss of income from limited school and child care performances and the likelihood of no school field trips in the coming year. Please consider supporting us today with a monthly donation of any amount. Every little bit helps!

Oh, we're so glad you asked... It's a UNIQUE Old-World Illusion Show perfect for anniversaries, date nights, birthdays, and special evenings! Thanks to our guests, Carnival of Illusion is the #1 Show on TripAdvisor and the longest-running theater show in Arizona history.


This 60-second film combines both the grand and the intimate nature of our shows. Go full screen for the epic Steven Spielberg experience. CHECK AVAILABILITY!


I highly recommend for date night, family night, special celebrations, or even go by yourself.

Imagine a vaudeville-inspired theater show with old-world magic, add a twinkling hint of 1900's Parisian humor, shake and stir for 100 minutes to fill your passport with FUN (and a bit of Skullduggery!) With a happy dose of audience participation, you are a VIP in this captivating Theater of Illusion.

Do something different, celebrate in one of our boutique theaters! Grab your friends and family and head for a fun memorable evening. Write a note at the end of your order to recognize your special occasion or date night and we'll give a shout-out in the show!

No smoke, no mirrors, no divas. If you're expecting large-scale Vegas pyrotechnics, showgirls, wind machines, Tyrannosaurus Rex, or "hip" & "cool" attitudes... this is NOT your theater show! BUT, if you're up for live show entertainment with a sweet nostalgic feel, a "vaudeville road show without the dust" then STEP RIGHT UP!

Everyone gets a great seat. We've created a cozy setting to allow you and the rest of the lucky ticket-holders the opportunity to "feel the magic". The performers are NOT on a raised stage, so the magic happens inches from the front row! You found the best thing to do this weekend and... SHOWS SELL OUT!

Recommended for mature 8+ years old. Although there is no "blue material", we cannot accommodate booster chairs, height issues, short attention spans, or boogie-man nightmares.

Once upon a time, there was an intimate illusion show, a place so kind to their guests that people traveled near and far for the magical entertainment. This was a rare and happy theater where audiences had so much fun, they never asked what to do this weekend again. It was a delightful night out and everyone had a swell time!

Looking for a dinner theater with a great meal? Good luck! With a variety of neighborhood options nearby, you won't have to eat a mystery meat entre with bland veggies again. From fast-food to gourmet, choose what YOU like. It's better than a dinner theater!

Looking for a magical gift? Carnival of Illusion gift certificates are perfect for family, friends, co-workers, or any other "Muggles" who would love fun, up-close magical entertainment. It's easy and you're a step closer to crossing one more item off that "to do" list! Perfect for birthday & anniversary celebrations. PHOENIX Gift Certificates or TUCSON Gift Certificates.
