    Puppet Workshops in PA

    I was in contact with Ryan Dillon of dillypuppets.com a while ago for much the same thing. He had originally planned a puppet performing workshop this Spring which got postponed to the Summer. No new date has been confirmed but, I encourage you to find out and report back ;)

    Any Puppets Going Down in NJ?

    I'm not sure if you're looking for 'adult' puppet entertainment but, if you're willing to travel, I've seen information for the 'Slutty Puppets' show (May 26) at the Galapagos Art Space in Brooklyn: http://imnotlost.net/slutty/ Here Arts Center (SoHo) has also been known to regularly showcase...

    Puppet Workshop Photos

    I'm sorry but, I love the compliments mixed in with the back-handed insults. In the interest of time, the workshop was "limited" to yellow fabric because we weren't going to buy every fabric under the sun and change sewing machine thread every time someone wanted a different colored puppet. When...

    Where's Michele from Puppet Planet?

    Sorry you're having problems. A week to the day of placing my order, I got notification that my 'eyes' were shipping and received them soon after. Maybe there's just a kink in the works.

    Where's Michele from Puppet Planet?

    Just curious if anyone is regularly in contact with Michele from Puppet-Planet.com I placed an order with her last week and then followed up with a question about another product in an email and haven't heard anything about the question or the order. Wondering if maybe she's just on vacation...

    Puppet Workshop Photos

    Hey gang. For anyone who was following what I've been up to.... The workshop I did at a local children's museum building puppets with 10 young artists, came to a close this past Saturday, April 4. The sense of accomplishment for all involved was wonderful and it was my first time sharing my...

    Support for New Puppet Company

    If you feel comfortable passing along this information, please do. I'm in the beginning stages of fund-raising for my puppet company Up In Arms. As some of you may know, it's been an exciting month teaching my first puppet-making workshop at the Interactive Museum in Middletown, NY. It's given...

    Kudos to www.russwalko.com. Great Puppet!

    I concur with all that has already been said. I purchased Russ' otter/weasel character. The build was top notch and the price couldn't be beat. I'd definitely purchase from him in the future. I see he's recently updated his site without the puppets with a new site to come but, they are up on a...

    Blog Update - Tips that WORK

    So, the blog has been updated again. I worked with some friends to test a workshop model and, in preparing the palms that I use for inserting the arm rods, I got my own answer. I think that the permanent arm rods are just easier and more practical. I will have to try them sometime. I still have...

    SST 40th Anniversary Event

    It was fun. I wish I could describe every moment but, suffice it to say, cameo appearances were made by Zoe, Telly Monster, Elmo and Oscar the Grouch himself. It was good fun when the puppets were out because they knew they were playing to an adult audience. Even those of us who are not exactly...

    Finger Puppets

    SR - you have such a cheeky sense of humor, I love it. The sock puppet/ finger puppet - adorable - the rather - ummm - feminine finger puppet shall we say [?] ...hysterical. I showed my female cubicle mate at work and she cracked up. I think it's so cool you did a class at the Etsy lab - even if...
