Just wanted to post a very VERY tardy THANK YOU to Spencer Lott for showing up and putting ALL of the Transylvania Television puppeteers through their paces in an afternoon workshop!

Spencer's experience and practice with manipulating puppets on screen was of immeasurable help to everyone... not just the puppeteers but the production crew as well.

Thanks once again, Spencer! And good luck at school this fall!

I also would like to add onto this shout out to a Great person.

It was A Lot of Fun going through the audition with Spencer, Of all the other puppeteers there I felt like the two of us were in sync, It was Great and A lot of fun, I've never had the feeling of being in sync with another puppeteer. It was Amazing.

This is a funny post. I'll join in.

I met Spencer last year and hand a chance to puppeteer with him. He is great. I wish he lived in the Toronto area, I'd have him working with me on all of my projects for sure.

All my best Spencer.

Spencer and I first met at boarding school just outside of London in our early teens. I transferred into the Historical Comparative Cultures class with Professor Arnolfbaum and of course, since we were sitting in Greek Alphabetical order, Spencer sat in front of me. In those days he went by the nickname "Lisa" and I was known as "Gertrude". We spent summers on the boardwalks of Blackpool, pitching our ideas for global peace through international topiary to the tourists.

All my best, Lisa.

Rarely do I laugh out loud from things I read. I just laughed out loud. Very nice.
