You can have the rigid part of your booth start at about chest height and go 
above your head. From that structure down to your ankles, you can construct 
basically a huge pair of pants that attach to the bottom edge of your rigid 
booth, with velcro, snaps or any means you like. This will give you lots of 
mobility. And with the rigid part starting above your waist, you'll have the 
additional ability to twist, turn and bend. We worked with such a design for years 
very successfully.

Also, if you make the pants come in tight to your ankles with elastic, any 
puppets you happen to accidentally drop inside the booth aren't lost, they're 
just somewhere down around your ankles, and if you're agile enough you can 
retrieve them.
