That would be so Much Fun!........it would add a lot to the show I think......which is kind of easy sadly....
He should Cha Cha through the Tipton (sp?) hotel!
BUT.....a nice training tool. Plus I imagine it will be a really nifty place to pick up some pre-made eyes + noses.....as well as clothes. AND eventually patterns when ppl start taking theirs apart. You gotta look at what you can scavenge.
But I think they will be really nice training tools for...
Ok, yea. I see that. Good Point.
I also sort of wonder if......without having it taught places are we not pushing puppetry far enough?---Ex...because most of us are self taught are we just circling around with the same ideas and techniques instead of innovating? like innovation is pushed in...
Yea!.....But there are of course other styles of Puppetry that don't need voices---like table-top, shadow, rod etc......
But I think you can work toward those voices---just don't think as "cartoony" think naturalistic.....just change your pitch if you want and try moderate accents..
A lot...
I believe that Puppetry can really only be learned by the individual...and Not taught...
it takes too long to learn for it to be taught by an institution.

& for clear up...staceyrebecca means that the eyes aren't pure white as they would seem. There are small bits of gray/black all over that cameras don't pick up. It's really interesting but cool.
But I don't know if the wacky stacks are speckled....the...
I saw a pair earlier this summer on an old eye mech example. They're really just like smaller thicker ping pong balls. Sorry--I just looked if I had taken any pics of them...but I hadn't.----But they're slightly smaller & thicker than ping pong balls. Really not too special.
Oh ok. The plastic is a doll joint. It comes in three pieces. If you can find all three you'll be good. Or you might have to order more.
