Puppet Showplace Theatre...before MAGIC SOUP...
MAGIC SOUP was a delightful puppet performance designed, written, and performed by resident artist Brad Shur. Stylistically, a very different way of telling a story than I am used to--and played to a completely packed, rapt audience. It was a joy...
Afterwards, coffee break with Artistic Director Roxie Myhrun...refreshing and exciting. Ideas and methods of development and education were discussed, exchanged, and explored. More thoughts on this entire experience after I see tonight's Puppets at Night production at the theatre, called BEND, about a young Japanese woman's father's experience in an internment camp. Filled with anticipation to see how she treats sand as puppetry to tell the story...
So far, this whole thing has been very engaging and informative, and I can only see it getting better as the evening progresses...
More later!
