I very badly needed to know how to make puppets because I had a show to do in two weeks. I didn't have a book on puppetry. Later I would find that I need many books on puppetry. But I dove in headfirst and bought a bunch of wire and started bending it into armatures, which I then later covered with papier mache. They were rough-and-tumble, but they were puppets. It was a slow and painful, but it was the beginning of a larger learning process. In fact, this process was so inefficient that others in my troupe took away this responsibility from me. Now I focus on writing, producing, and directing. You'll find that these shows, even on a small scale, are enormous amounts of work. So I suggest you start looking around, finding the talented people around you and luring them in with the promise of puppet-groupies or something. Best of luck, Joel the Bobbindoctrin Draco81584-AT-aol.com on 06/09/97 09:34:05 PM To: puptcrit-AT-jefferson.village.Virginia.EDU cc: (bcc: Joel Orr/WW/Interliant) Subject: Puppet making Hi!
