Hey, all. I've been pretty inactive on this project so far due to current time constraints, but I'm really interested in doing some puppetry for the evening. Yeah, yeah, I'm a psycho who lives in John Malcovich's brain, tee-hee, etc., etc.! ;-D
Seriously, I have some small marionettes that would be fine for a a very low-scale, sidewalk thing, but would not allow a whole lot of viewers due to their small size. Does anyone have a portable stage? I'm most interested in doing some human-sized puppets, which would be more visible and would solve the stage problem. I love the concept of Mummenschanz and I'm open to ideas.
I'll be free to put a lot of time into this starting around the 9th. Are there any Frank Ozs dying to join me?

Mon, December 5, 2005 - 11:14 PMWell We have a bunch of Giant Puppets that folks are welocm to use...george bush, a giant corporate face that eats people (mostly workers).
Check in with grrrant@cruzio.com about getting them out of storage if you want to use some of them. We are a little low on folks to carry them at this point.

Thu, December 22, 2005 - 10:41 AMHiraeth is helping pull together the puppet people. Shoot her an email. She's been wanting to do puppets for months. It is awesome of Art and Revolution to make their half dozen giant puppets available for the parade. The contact for A&R's puppets (the puppet secretary so to speak) is Grant at grrrant-at-cruzio.com
