Puppetlab: Full Moon Rehearsals, Final Building and Gearing Up for the Big Show

In preparing for the show, it seemed like a wise idea to get this onstage before diving headlong into rehearsal - and mentor Liz Schacterle provided the perfect opportunity with her Full Moon Puppet Show at Open Eye Theatre.  I enlisted the help of friends Kit Leffler, Eric Bryson and Elyse Lyon to put together a super condensed version of the show - only three minutes. The magnificent Lorena Molina photographed the rehearsals in my basement.

I built some tiny rabbits.

Packing up for Full Moon.

These pods are going to play an integral part - the first one I constructed at Full Moon's Carboard Workshop.

Here we are discussing something - Pictured R to L: Eric, Kit, Elyse, Myself.
