@ Jill, I'm glad you enjoy Snuff Puppets' work; I am familiar with the company, but never actually seen one of their shows myself. I can't send you any programs for their shows as I'm not affiliated with the company. You can find out their schedule/show dates at their website: http://www.snuffpuppets.com/.
