    Being Elmo

    Hey, everyone--maybe other people have discussed this in other places on the forum, but I was just wondering if anyone's seen "Being Elmo: A Puppeteer's Journey" yet and how they liked it. It just came to Chicago and is here for another week, and I'm really excited about seeing it. I've heard...

    New Jaguar Puppet

    Hi, everyone. I began working on this jaguar puppet for the Project Puppet contest over the summer, but my best friend got married the weekend it was due, so I wasn't able to finish it then. However, he has finally been completed. My mom called him 'Virgil', so that's his new name. He's a...

    What's the best way to 'mold' foam?

    In viewing a lot of the production photos that puppet makers have put up on the internet, I've seen a lot of carved foam with no fabric (a la Gonzo's face :concern:), and I was wondering what the best way is to accomplish that.

    It seems like all the cool kids are posting about old PBS shows. Did anyone else grow up watching Wishbone, with the dog that imagines he's characters in great works of literature? Looking back, they handled some pretty heavy themes, like the French Revolution and the guillotining of Sydney...

    Is anyone else in Illinois?

    This place is crazy! The Governor was arrested yesterday for trying to get Chicago Tribune editorial writers that he didn't like fired, for threatening to withhold $8 million in funding for a CHILDREN'S HOSPITAL if he didn't get a $50,000 donation to his campaign, and for trying to sell Barack...

    Dinosaur Puppet Teeth/Horns?

    Hi, everyone. I'm new to the forum. I'm making two dinosaur puppets (a T-Rex and a triceratops) for my cousins, ages 5 and 7, for Christmas. Does anyone have any ideas for making teeth and/or horns? I'm worried about them being foam, since then they'd be bendable. Maybe there's some...
