Reviews
"Absolutely loved the puppet/marionette show in the pollock pines library it was a very beautiful play, Mrs/Ms Kitty in the north pole play was my Absolute favorite, the mice were also very cute to be honest I haven't seen such a good marionette show in a long time it was wonderful!"
"Fratello comes to Las Vegas in the summer and performs at our local libraries. My children and I have attended their shows for years and are always delighted by the performances, the beautiful puppets, and the kind and professional puppeteers."
"Family entertainment for kids and adults of all ages. It's easy to temporarily forget that the marionettes are controlled by puppeteers! I've seen The Fratello Marionettes perform a variety of shows at libraries and fairs/festivals throughout the Bay Area over the past nine years and never been disappointed."
"Snapped at my kid and made her cry. Was rude and unapologetic. Did not attempt to make things right. Fratello was hired for an outdoor event for my toddler's daycare. Afterwards the gentleman invited the kids to have a look at the dolls. My 6 year old was curious. The puppeteer snapped at her "hands off, I'm watching you!" despite her having not touched anything of import. She ran off crying in shame. I walked over to smooth it out and apologize for her (which I should not have even done, why apologize for a quiet and inquisitive 6 year old?). I calmly suggested that she was just curious and he could've handled it differently... before I could even offer that they bury the hatchet together, he then snapped at me, "I don't blame the kid, I blame her parents. Only so much I can do when the kids aren't being monitored." Can you imagine. The response I expected would be a profuse apology, not a lecture in parenting. Look elsewhere for children's entertainment."
"Second time hiring their services. They are great, always on time and the kids really love their presentations."
