What to Expect

Performances typically run from 45-60 minutes. I have some scripted presentations (anti-bullying and conflict resolution for kids), but a good part of my performance is improvising with my puppets and members of the audience.
Currently, I have Emily, an energetic and rambunctious little girl, Dr. Dastardly, a not-so-evil genius, who likes to create "dastardly" plans, and Harvey, an animatronic monster puppet. I recently added a ventriloquist mask to transform a member of the audience into a life-size "dummy" (see pictures).
I am accustomed to working with elementary-aged children on a daily basis, but I have performed for audiences of all ages! I can also customize content based on the audience as well, from PG to NC-17.

About

I grew up outside of Buckhannon, West Virginia where I graduated from Buckhannon-Upshur High School and West Virginia Wesleyan College. I have a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, master's degree in Counseling, and a PhD. Counselor Education and Supervision with a concentration in Leadership.
I am a former West Virginia Counselor of the Year, Strawberry King, and a lifetime 4-H All-star. On the weekends, I perform with West Virginia's premiere improv comedy troupe, the Fearless Fools.
I am passionate about teaching others to peacefully resolve conflicts and keeping young and talented people in the state of West Virginia. I am the owner of Tolliver Counseling and Consulting Services, LLC in Morgantown, WV.
