Subject: PUPT: Puppet scene etc. in Connecticut
From: Christopher Polack <cpolack-AT-mac.com>


Wayong,

New Jersey or Boston? You might consider to relocate to Connecticut. We 
have an active puppetry guild, Home of UConn Puppetry, centrally located 
'tween New York, Jersey and Boston. We also have the annual puppet fest at 
the Eugene O'Neill theater.

I work mainly in interactive theater for a living- we're on the road a lot 
  and being located in the center of the Northeast has worked out great.

Also, our arts commission is really supportive of arts and puppetry.

We also have our arts festival---
International Festival of Arts and Ideas

Fun Fact: Puppetry was illegal in Connecticut until 1929!
