Subject: [Puptcrit] Holiday Shows


Hello, all.   I just caught Crabgrass Theatre's "Mr Punch's Christmas Carol" 
at the site of the '64 World's Fair here in new York.   (Great job, Bonny and 
Jamie!)   Probably about 800 kids were in attendance, split between two shows. 
  And as I was leaving the theatre, I saw that a Latino theatre's holiday 
glove puppet show will be presented in the same space tomorrow at 2pm.   

So this is a good opportunity to request again that anyone on the list who is 
performing with glove puppets as an element in this busy month of December 
should please send me their information (offlist, please!) for the online 
performance calendar at http://www.puppets.inuk.com/americas/usroundup.htm . 

If you don't have a show this month, check out the page anyway, if you 
please, to see the various things going on around the country.

Punch & Judy related shows are most welcome, as are all hand puppet 
productions.   Marionette and rod shows with a connection to the Punch archetype are 
also appropriate fodder for the site.

This is a busy season for Punch in the Americas.

Chris Somerville's overall site, which has made the page space available, is 
located at www.punchandjudy.com, and is full of information. 

Happy upcoming St Nicholas Day,
Sean K.
