I  am anxiously packing for the Puppetry Intensive Worksop at Humber College in Toronto.

This is a 2-week workshop that covers manipulation and building of all kinds of puppets.  I have fallen in love with what puppets can achieve that human actors cannot and what puppets can make possible for my students.
So here I go.
I have my lightweight, easy to move in trip clothes, my yoga pants and t-shirts, my blacks, my whites -- I'm prepared for anything...I think.  This is such unknown territory, in spite of the wonderful conferences I have attended with the Puppeteers of America. I took a workshop in shadow puppetry with Faye Dupras at the PoA conference in CT, and when I learned that she was one of the instructors for the Puppetry Intensive, I was hooked.
