(yell at me if I shouldn't!)
Our theater hosted The Josh and Tamra Show last night. If you're unfamiliar with the show, they're an improv duo from New York that uses puppets. Josh worked with the muppets for about 10 years. Someone can correct me on that if I'm wrong...unless I'm wrong, then no one is allowed to correct me...
I haven't recorded myself doing that particular show yet. I'm sure I'll improve vastly once I do that. Thankfully I have a wonderful lead puppeteer & director.
HAH! My first show my mic went out & it threw me off so badly I had to improvise the song. Thankfully I consider myself a half-decent musical improviser... Hey at least I knew the tune! And I was in a mask, so nobody could see my beet-red face...
At this point it's not even the rap that I'm struggling with (Or maybe it is and I have not enough rhythm to notice), but more the transition from informal performances for drunkards to needing a polished show.
Thankfully I'm a confident improviser that has been able to recover from missed...
So I've just finished my first week of schlepping a show to schools. I had 2 weeks to learn it. Other performers have done it with more time, others with less (hi Jeremy)....

This is highly confusing.
Vault of puppets has a etsy shop. Isn't that sweet?
Eh..I suppose its not my battle to fight. (ohhh but I wants to)
Also...I would assume Grover to have toes...
I just have to say how much I love that game.

Good luck!
Edit:
I realized that I wasn't being all...
Black like ninja is traditionally what puppeteers wear and I'm all for keeping up tradition (especially when tradition makes you look thinner).
Its less distracting & allows you to see the puppet more. Granted, if the puppeteer is going to talk that's something else entirely.
