    I never forgot the beautiful shows that the Puppet Parlor put on. My Father would take me and my brother to them, and we loved them. Because of your hard work Ralph - you helped to put creativity and a love for puppets into the heart of a little boy, who still is a boy at heart! Happy to hear about your relocation, and I can't wait to bring my 6 year old niece to one of your performances!!

    It is a rare opportunity to meet anyone with as much love for his craft as Ralph (Owner-operator of the puppet parlor.) I have only had the privelage of a few phone calls from the day I write this and yet I can't help but feel an overwhelming amount of respect for the passion that he puts into what he does. He loves puppetry and the theater and I can feel that during our conversations. I would urge anyone to go and see the performances of the puppet parlor merely to see a master craftsman at there best doing what they love to do and never letting go of there dreams.

    The Puppet Parlor Theatre will SOON BE BACK! Thanks to a group of caring Masons, the Puppet Parlor Theatre will soon be back, presenting their famous, time-frozen productions of plays and musicals in the the Des Plaines Masonic Center, located at 620 Lee Street in Des Planes IL.

    I remember the first time I saw the puppet parlor. It seamed like I had stubbled into a time zone. sometimes we get shown the light in the stangest of places if we just look at it right.

    I'm sorry to hear there was a fire. Ralph if you happen to read this don't get down. I've got an idea!

    For a TV show!

    magic fish, poetry reading dragons and a fool...

    don't give up hope ralph because where the is love there is hope

    your friend,

    Jim

    how sad! i was wondering what happened, why it seemed the storefront looked so emptied out but not quite gone. the last performance i saw there i remember thinking ''my god, if this place ever had a fire..'' :( good luck little puppet parlor.

    There was a major fire at the puppet parlor today ) - :. I don't know what this means for its future, if there is one.
