Learn the magic of bringing a complex puppet to life with other performers!

Participants apply the basic tenets of puppetry performance (rhythm, focus, breath, and tension) to direct manipulation puppets operated by three puppeteers sharing one puppet. This puppetry style requires working in close quarters with two other people, and an ability to stand, bend, and squat. (Please reach out if you would like to participate but have concerns about accessibility).

This workshop will be taught by Caroline Reck and Gricelda Silva, Co-Producing Artistic Directors of Glass Half Full Theatre.
