Yes, a very brief view and I don't think the art style that was chosen for the sculpture did justice to Jim nor his creations.

Well, I took my own advise and watched 'Entertainment Tonight' to see if they mentioned the stamp ceremony. They did not, (maybe tomorrow, if ever) but they did show the unveiling of the Jim Henson Wall Sculpture Dedication for only five seconds. How did it look?... Well, for the few...

Be on the alert this evening should 'Entertainment Tonight' show coverage of the stamp ceremony. I'm saddened to hear about Jerry Juhl. The man always had a smile on his face and was a really happy good natured fellow. .

I plan to save my stamps. I know I'll get emotional when I finally see Jim on a stamp.

Just curious what was demeaning and disappointing? I'm happy to hear other than that you had a great time. .

I get the feeling that in time, some of these appearances might be by the Occasional Muppeteers that have been auditioning.

That would be great. Actually I would like to see some kind of new original Muppet program performed by all female puppeteers and see if it takes off. Also I have to comment that the history of TV has been hilarious when we have men portraying women in comedy. Such as Milton Berle, Bob Hope...

Wow! Only 70 in L.A.! And only 80 in NY! That is a surprising and disappointing turnout! I know the Muppets aren't at the height of their fame right now and I would believe that would partially account for the low turnout. Big difference from years ago when the Henson's auditioned 1,000 people...

In this forum we were told that Sesame Street would also be at these auditions. In the NY auditions people were told Jeff represented Sesame Street. Did they mention he was there representing Sesame Street at the Los Angeles audition as well? .

For those that attended, any idea how many people showed up to audition in Los Angeles? (Someone had posted on another thread that about 80 showed up in NY.) .

Should you start from scratch and create another one you have to remember it has to be less than 5KB.

I believe I saw on the Henson website a profile of Cheryl Henson that said she lives with her hubby and two kids.

Hello all. I called the US postal service at 1-800-STAMP24 to enquire if there will be any public event for the release date of the new Muppet and Henson stamps. Well there will be!! Here’s the information I was given over the phone. The Muppets will be at the first day stamp...

If you have followed this long thread, you know how Kynan and a few others feel about these auditions. But it made me think, Kevin Clash was in charge of these auditions, so I guess he's in favor of them? Of course Disney might have said he had to be there if he wanted to keep his job, but I...

That's a great set of stamps and it brings a tear to the eye to finally see Jim on a stamp. I would imagine there would be some kind of post office press conference with the Muppets and Jim's family the day the stamps are released.

I have a feeling that in places like L.A or NYC it will always be the main performer appearing. I would definitely not call these new guys that will be picked understudies. How about Muppeteers version 2.0? :) Personally I just prefer the term 'Occasional Muppeteers', which is what...

Why no puppet is required. One of the ways the Muppeteers evaluate a puppeteer is by looking at their hands. If one had been allowed to wear his or her own puppet at the audition, it can mask what a horrible puppeteer the person could actually be. Sure on the surface it looks like you are...

Call Todd and ask! You never know.

I know you are excited and good luck to you, but explain this... you went Sept. 8th and you didn't get a 'callback' for Sept. 9th, yet they want to see you for a Sesame workshop? The Sesame folk were there at the audition weren't they? You would think the Sesame people would have wanted to see...
