Cactus Ranch Elementary School Today, we are excited and honored to have Matt Sandbank’s Shadow Factory. This is a one-man traveling shadow theater based out of Austin, TX. Each of Matt’s programs uses a mixture of shadow puppetry and poetry not only to tie in to Language Arts curricular standards, but also to tap in to an audience’s grander sense of wit and wonder! Since 2009, Matt has toured nationally, visiting hundreds of schools and libraries across the country.
