Subject: [Puptcrit] Animated cookie or tortilla? Why not Bagels?


Fran Dowie electrfied the audience at San Luis Obispo with his Bagel on  string. First he covered the tech aspects: the Bagel could not be too soft nor too hard, but just right. I think Fran read Goldilocks & the Three Bears as research?

Anyway, he proved it is better not to be too rigid on definitions of "puppet".

I was a guest at a Children's Theatre Conference at the Biltmore Hotel in Downtown Los Angeles YEARS AGO. Bruce Chesse kind of snuck me in to hear a symposium define "CHILDREN'S THEATRE". Finally it included "supervised by an adult"---a blatant, self-serving definition. So now we have a role model to follow in defining "puppet".

I was really hoping for a cookie or tortilla puppet project so I could 
just eat it when I'm done. And the audience can watch and drool.  :o)
