I’ve been meaning to blog about this for awhile, but now I have a really, really good reason. Go watch the trailer for Handmade Puppet Deams. This is a collection of short puppet films curated by Heather Henson (Jim Henson’s daughter) and the trailer shows some of the most exciting puppetry I’ve seen. There is gorgeous stuff here. It’s a collection I desperately want to see, but am, alas, not in the right place.
Where is the right place? Atlanta, Georgia. This Friday, April 20th at 8:00 pm. I have two free tickets. Oh, the agony.
Do you want to go?
If you are in the Atlanta area and want to go see Handmade Puppet Dreams, drop a line in the comments and let me know why you should be the one to get them between now and 6:00 pm tomorrow (PST). You have to promise me that you’ll give me a full report.
There are also tickets on sale for $7 and $9. One show. 350 seats. Breath-taking puppetry. Regardless, go watch the trailer.
