With Shawna Reiter, Sundays, April 24 & May 1, from 1:00 to 2.30 EST
Description: This workshop is an introduction to puppetry performance. Using simple materials students will create puppets and learn how to bring them to life. We will explore breath, movement, focus, fixed point, and character. Skill building will focus on actions and reaction, how a puppet thinks and how puppets express emotion.
