My other blogs are about trips or long-term workshops, but I want to put pictures and musings from even a great weekend conference together somewhere. Hence this ongoing blog that I will add to over a period of years.

Workshop 1 Ensemble Puppetry
This workshop gave me some tips on how to help my students work together to manipulate one puppet. The idea is to breathe together, to include a preparatory movement for each movement, and to see the working parts of the puppet at the same time as you see what the puppet is seeing. It's this bi-optic that brings the puppet to life. I also saw two designs for simple puppets that would be much lighter for my students to hold and easier for them to make.
