So Sean are you going to do any other performances or were you just in on the one in LA? (Great job btw)

Thanks, I had a lot of fun. I won’t be in the Edinburgh show. They had eight performer slots and we’ve have been as many as 13 or more people involved in the improv class, so there simply wasn’t room for everyone.

This Yahoo News article has been posted elsewhere in the Forum, but I though I would re post it here for those that didn't see it: http://news.yahoo.com/s/nm/20060810...B9oZspxFb8C;_ylu=X3oDMTA2Z2szazkxBHNlYwN0bQ--

If any of you have seen it, we would sure love to hear your thoughts.

before you post something like that , perhaps you should understand that the henson company does not own muppets these days.So they can care as much or as little as they want , and Disney will do what they want to do regardless,

Well it does not change the fact that it is still upsetting.

Give it a chance it may be good. But I do agree that there is a difference between tasteful adult humor and raunchy. We shall see.

I saw the adult show twice and the kids show once, thoroughly enjoyed it. Thought the adult shows worked better as they had Patrick Bristow as the compere rather than one of the puppeteers. Will post a fuller report soon, am rather short of time. It's certainly worth seeing if you can, if only to see Julianne perform...she's very talented.

New Puppet Up interview

I found a great interview with Henson Improv director Patrick Bristow on stv.tv, which, from what I can gather is a Scottish pop culture web site. Check it out and share your thoughts: http://www.stv.tv/out/showArticle.j...burg_festival/comedy/patrickbristow_interview

Well worth a look if you're anywhere near the area. Saw the show four times over the summer and thoroughly enjoyed it. Is the far too talented Julianne performing in it? If so it's even worth seeing even more!
