Puppetry which tells archetypal stories and is ensouled with meaningful gestures, creative speech, beautiful color, textures and set design is such a gift for all of us in the media-saturated world of today. We are so lucky to have an opportunity this summer to be inspired by working together and creating with the following master storytellers and puppeteers:
