An Introduction to Puppetry Workshop

This workshop is an introduction to puppetry wherein the goal is to have the participant walk away with an understanding of the fundamentals of working with puppets of various styles.  Most of the work will include manipulation of basic puppets and found objects but we will attempt to cover work with full body and over sized puppets as well as the Japanese style of bunraku.  Some of the different styles will involve partnered manipulation.  The workshop will also involve improvisations work with much of the focus being on maintaining a narrative.
