Booking a show with Nick Barone Puppets

Please call Nick Barone at (650) 365-8070 (9 AM - 7 PM Pacific) for information on availability, pricing and booking a show.

You can also contact Nick via email, though it's best to call regarding show bookings.

Please note: my ISP has very aggressive SPAM filtering and, unfortunately, it has been filtering out some legitimate emails. Calling on the phone is the best way contact me.

Please include the following information in your email or phone message so I can give you an accurate availability and pricing quote:

1) Please include the date(s) you are interested in.
2) Please include the time you would like the puppet show to start.
3) Please include the city where your event is being held.


Please do not use the public show page as a way of determining availability. Since private performances are not listed there, it is not a complete calendar of shows. Please call to discuss the availability of Nick Barone Puppets.

Nick Barone Puppets will travel outside of the San Francisco Bay Area for multiple shows only. Please call for pricing and availability.


How soon should I call you to book a show?
As soon as you have a date and location for your event, you should book the entertainment. Some schools and libraries book six months to a year in advance. My calendar fills up fast, so I urge you to call as soon as you have your date and location decided. It's best to book your entertainment before you send out invitations, since I may not have your first date and time available.

What time should the puppet show start?
I recommend that the puppet show start one half hour to a full hour after your party is scheduled to start. This is to make sure all of your guests have arrived and everyone is ready to watch the show.

* I perform several shows on the same day. I schedule their start times based on other shows I have that day and travel time between shows. It is very important your show start on time as scheduled.

How much setup time is required?
I will arrive at least 30 minutes before the start of the show to be sure everything is loaded in, set up and ready to start on time. After the show, it takes about 15-20 minutes to pack everything up.

What happens when you book a show?
After you call and we find a date and time for your show, you must mail me a non-refundable deposit. This deposit holds your requested date and time, and I will turn away any other events asking for that time slot. Once I receive your deposit, I will send you a written confirmation. The day before the show, I will call you and reconfirm the booking.

** Do not send a deposit unless you have booked a show with me over the phone or you've recieved an email from me requesting a deposit! **
