when we let our imagination soar
Yes, there's a story here . . . which will hopefully be forthcoming!
While quickly searching in our garage for a *prop* to help me with a project I was assembling, I reached into a rectangular glass sandbox in which, over many years, I had saved odds and ends of broken artifacts. All of a sudden I literally screamed as I had not remembered putting this ceramic puppet's broken ear into the sand! So I've been spending time putting her back together, and she's almost ready for a show! Who said one can't make something new and creative from a sow's ear!?!
In preparation for an idea I have up my sleeve, I found the following quotations of interest! Enjoy!
"If anyone would have been paying serious attention to my puppet shows, I would have been sent to therapy very young."
~ Bob Balaban ~
"Everything in my career is my decision - every picture, every outfit. You get one chance at this, and I never saw myself as being a puppet."
~ Katherine Jenkins ~
"A puppet, for example, is just a piece of wood, a couple of rivets, but put them together, and if you know how to do it, and the audience's imagination joins in with this, then a miracle will come out of that machine. That is what we and the audience do in the theatre - we create miracles in that space."
~ Robert Lepage ~
"I usually hold a puppet and play with different voices until something happens and the right voice just hits me. Then, I'll pick a name that just seems to fit the character that naturally comes out.""
