Based on the east coast of Virginia, we are frequently seen in Williamsburg, Hampton, Newport News, Virginia Beach, Norfolk, Richmond, the Eastern Shore, and the Outer Banks.   While we are headquartered in Hampton Roads, Virginia, we tour nationally and have been seen in the smallest of venues to the grandest opera houses!  

We are currently on tour with Toyland! with Mickey Rooney, Chessie the Manatee, Noah's Floating Zoo, Jonah, The Wetland Revue, and Creatures Great and Small.  From the Sea to the Sky opens in December of 2006.  Many of our original songs and stories by company founder David Messick are available on CD. 

Rainbow Productions began in 1977 producing original children's musicals for libraries.   These library shows later grew into huge musicals including a tour of "Babes in Toyland" featuring a cast of over 100 performers.  We now provide educational puppet programs and workshops for schools, host an annual puppet festival, and present elaborate presentations in select theaters across the country.
