Create an act in a weekend!
 

There's nothing quite like an impending deadline to light the fire under you. An intensive is a great way for you to get moving to make a new puppetry act because you won't have time to doubt yourself.

​

How it works:

​

• Thursday: Using examples, I will break down what makes a great solo puppetry act. I'll give you the framework and parameters for your new act, which can be in any style of puppetry you please.

• Friday: You will pitch your idea for an act. We'll give some feedback, talk stuff out, and you'll start creating.

• Saturday: We don't officially meet on Saturday because you're busting your butt to get your act made. I will be available for "office hours" during our regular meeting time if you need anything.

• Sunday: We meet again! You will either record your 3-5 minute act and send it to me on Sunday by 4pm PT, or you'll perform live during class.

​

 

I'll send each individual feedback to each performer after the final show and if you feel ready, I can help you get booked on shows!

​

 

 

Here's what you get from this workshop:

• a new 3-5 minute act that you can do alone on stage or for online shows

• a framework from which to create and hone new work

• accountability, a deadline + a class show

• written feedback from me after your performance

​

I've created many solo puppet acts and I have performed on many, many stages – from dingy bars in sketchy neighborhoods to exclusive shows for fancy Hollywood celebs. 

I bring my years of experience to the table to help you find your voice as a performer and puppeteer. ​

​

All levels welcome. Please have puppets you can work with for this class.
