CREATE A SOLO PUPPET ACT

5-week workshop

What you get from this workshop:

A new solo puppetry act that you can do on stage or for online shows.
A framework to use for creating acts, over and over again.
Videos, handouts, and resources from each class.
A private facebook group for support from fellow students.
Resources for submitting your act to shows.

A solo act in your back pocket is a game changer.

You can do it anywhere

and you will have it forever.

Weeks 1-2

We'll talk about good writing and storytelling, creating your characters and we'll discuss the question - why puppets? We'll go over styles of puppetry.

Weeks 3-4

You'll come up with an outline for your act based on the framework provided and will start to practice in your chosen style of puppetry!

Week 5

You will submit video of your performance to me. I'll provide resources for submitting to puppet slams and shows.
