Julio,

Have you tried getting in contact with any puppetry clubs in the area? Another option might be to just get volunteers and do a basic training session with them to teach them the basics of puppteering.

It is true that puppeteering is a skill that needs to be learned and practiced. However, it has been my experience that there are people out there who have a natural talent, even though they have never puppeteered before.

I have been fortunate enough to run in to a few of those people in my time. It might be worth the effort if you are really in need of extra puppeteers.

Best of luck.

P.S. I think your dream (Kermit's statement) is a very noble one. Keep it alive through what you are doing.

I'd be willing to come and help out but I'm not really a puppeteer yet and it would be a long way to travel each wednesday.

yeah but if it was a bit closer I'd travel a bit. I have to travel a bit to the puppet workshop thats on in Sydney tonight. Its pretty much right in the city and is about an hour on the train.
