About the Artist
CactusHead Puppets was started in 2010 by John and Megan Regan. Known for their playful performance style and exuberant creativity, they have created six fun family shows including The Pied Piper of Hamelin, Bremen Town Musicians, and Magnificent Monster Circus. They tour throughout the Northeast and are affiliated artists with the Puppet Showplace Theater. Both Megan and John are graduates of the University of Connecticut's Puppet Arts program, and were interns at Puppet Showplace Theater way back! Megan is originally from the Kansas City area, where she worked with Paul Mesner Puppets, now known as What is Puppets. John is from western Massachusetts, and is honored to be performing in some of the same venues where he saw puppet shows growing up.
