Subject: [Puptcrit] Adapting Grimm's Fairy Tales...


Hello,
               I am a felt doll maker and have been working the last
few years on turning my creations into puppets. I have almost finished
the design and now will be turning my attention to puppet theatre and
script writing. I have no experience writing any kind of script at
all, though I do have a knack for writing stories.

I would like to start out using an old Grimm's or other fairy tale and
was hoping to get some advice on adapting fairy tales to puppet plays.
How do I begin ?  What is the first step ? Is there an easy formula
for writing out a script and adapting a fairy tale ? Should I make the
puppets first, or script ?

Any advice on this topic or script writing in general would be appreciated.....
