    Wocka-Wocka... He's at it again!

    I wonder if you would feel that way if the illegal internet auctions were ripping you off?

    WANTED: Audrey II

    If you're looking for plans you can rent a book How to Audrey II from Music Theatre International (www.mtishows), who licenses the performance rights for the show. It contains the original plant plans by Marty Robinson who created them. In my humble opinion, this is by far the best look for the...

    Wocka-Wocka... He's at it again!

    Well said, Gordon! It calls into question the very foundation of integrity. The mentality that says "it's only wrong if you get caught" is deplorable. I suppose if I saw someone beating up a little old lady and stealing her purse that I would be under no obligation to report that either...

    Leaving GA Stage

    Maybe you can get GA Stage to keep you on exclusively as "Antron Fleece Consultant!" You could just "telecommute"... Naw, you're probably looking forward to not having to deal with all of us loveable yet exasperating puppeteers! Best wishes for your future endeavors!

    WANTED: Audrey II

    The 4 puppets on ebay don't look as awful as most I've seen. If you were to get them I'd consider repainting them at least. To have a set built for $400 is simply not realistic at all. The first set I built we spent nearly $2,000 on parts alone, and the second one we cut some corners and spent...

    Hilarious Puppet Up Sketch

    That was great! Not only was it a very funny sketch, but hopefully it might make a few people aware of the fact that puppetry doesn't "just happen".

    Check out John Kennedy's Puppetmania book. He has an excellent "recipe" for Banana puppets! http://www.puppetkit.com/c/1

    Are good puppeteers also good at drawing?

    Well, just to throw a monkey-wrench into things, I cannot draw to save my life... which is of course why I am a graphic designer for a living! I find it very interesting that both of my parents, both of my brothers and both of my sisters can all draw, but I cannot. Weird....

    My puppets will be on Fox

    Loved the puppets! Especially Alien #2 with that party hat, and the way his eyes were, and most importantly, how well he was manipulated. Great stuff! It seems certain that it will be in the top 5 at least!

    On The Lot: Spaced Out

    That's very true. I've always hated these "reality" shows where the audience boos the judges, just because they are right! Really the only way the public can effectively be the "judges" on these types of issues is if they buy the albums, pay for admission to the films, etc. The whole "voting"...

    On The Lot: Spaced Out

    That was hilarious! Great puppetry, expecially the second alien. Obviously they gave the director experiences puppeteers. It would be cool to find out who they were. Although when all was said and done, I had to vote for Danger Zone as being the best film. Tons of comedy in only one minute!

    Help with Puppetry Stigma

    Buck- I hope you know that I do hold you in the very highest regard. I would unhesitatingly classify your posts as being the most valuable on the entire forum. Certainly there is no excuse for ridiculous behavior! I would never blame a victim for getting robbed in a dark alley, although I...
