Zan and Dan Raynor have been with Stevens Puppets since 1993. They both
came to Stevens Puppets with
extensive theatre backgrounds both onstage and off. Their love of theatre
began when they were in high school.
Zan in Elkhart, IN and Dan in San Jose, CA. They both have acted and directed
professionally all over the
Country. Unbeknownst to them, they were developing creative and unique skills
that would eventually
come full circle and help them while creating and performing marionette
theatre. Zan does all the new carving
for Stevens Puppets, and restores the "Original Stevens marionettes",
and Dan
does the performing. Some of the marionettes date back to 1949.
After Zan finished her Masters degree from the University
of Notre Dame ,
Zan continued her Doctoral studies at the Catholic
University of America in Washington DC.
The Raynor's now reside in Bristol, IN.
