From: CPapalexis-AT-aol.com Date: Mon, 31 Mar 2008 15:45:46 EDT To: puptcrit-AT-puptcrit.org Subject: [Puptcrit] marionettes Just thought I would share these quotes with you - I noticed them from the definition of marionette on Wikipedia... for more info (including the source of these quotes) go to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marionette (not intending to start any long discussion about the veracity of these words, just thought you would enjoy reading them...) Puppeteer David Logan states, "Marionettes are seen by many as the most complex form of puppetry perhaps due to the time it takes to make them and to learn how to effectively manipulate them. They are capable of a greater range of movement possibilities than the other forms of puppetry." Puppeteer David Currell states, "A puppet is not an actor and a puppet theatre is not human theatre in miniature, because when an actor 'represents', a puppet 'is'." Oscar Wilde wrote about puppetry, "There are many advantages in puppets. They don't argue with you, they don't have any tastes in art, and they don't have anything to lose." - Christine ************** Create a Home Theater Like the Pros. Watch the video on AOL Home.
