Subject: [Puptcrit] Wilma & Hildred Karre, marionettes 1940s Nebraska


Are any puptcritters from Nebraska and have heard of the Karre Sisters, active in the 1940s, former members of Puppeteers of America?

I am working on a Puppetry Journal article.

Cute and well done.

One of my favorite Puppet-Up sketches seen so far. That French Movie Director is hilarious.

Must watch: Are You a Puppet?
very deep.

You Are a Pirate!
Catchy song, some parents might have been a bit angry at the "message". LoL.
Kids TV show, with a freaky cast of people and puppets. That pink haired kid looks like a japanese girl-hero on a speed overdose.
Funny-scary! The puppets are technically impressive, the scout kid's eyelids are smooth and seamless!
see them up close here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SHXRqs2FzdE

The B-TEAM
Celebrity puppets made from Barbie dolls, a new imcarnation of the TV Series, The A-Team
