New to MC and NYC..here to make puppets and friends

Hi, all 9,000 or so of you. I just moved to NYC and worked my first job for The Jim Henson Company. That project is over, but I am hoping to connect with other people who love Muppets and Henson and everything furry and witty.

And :attitude: I would just like to say that" Muppets Wizard of Oz" was totally underated.

Anybody else here worked for Henson, or work in NYC?

Hi Rarabird, welcome to MC :smile:

Yeah I've worked with Jim Henson Company...oh...wait...hehe, that was just a dream I had.

That's so great you had a job with them, what did you work on?

I just saw Muppets Wizard of Oz the other day, I can't say it's my favourite, and if I wanted to make friends of mine watch the muppets, it wouldn't be one I'd suggest to them. But, it had it's moments.

A dream come true to work for Henson

HI Pork,

We are just wrapping up work on making the live musical play "Emmet Otter's Jugband Christmas", which will be opening Dec. 5 and running to January 5th. It will be playing at the Goodspeed Operahouse in East Haddam, CT.

Hopefully, if it is a success (I can't imagine it not being), then they will perform it every year as a standard.

I was hired to make all the tails for the human costumed creatures: muskrats, porcupines, otters, foxes, squirrels, lizards, beavers and a stoat....(have fun Googling that one).

It was one of the best jobs I ever had. I hope they will pick me again for another upcoming project! Everyone is so sweet and fun to work with. :zany:

Gee, I wanna figure out how to use these Muppet Smilies (emoticons) in my regular emails! :confused:
