Puppetry is one of the oldest and most accessible art forms, and is used all over the world to tell stories both beautiful and strange. Our workshop will explore three diverse styles of puppetry: shadow, found object, and rod. Students will learn about each of these styles, have the opportunity to explore and animate, and be provided with materials to create a basic puppet in one style of their choosing to use in a short, devised solo or small group performance. Instructor Bio: Molly is a multi-disciplinary performer, artist, and educator who loves experimenting with puppetry in theatre and film. She is an alumna of the University of San Diego and MCIAT where she completed the 2-year comprehensive training program. She has studied puppet design, fabrication and performance with Andrew Kim, Twisted Heart Puppetworks, Animal Cracker Conspiracy, Mindy Donner, Lynne Jennings, Joyce Hutter and A Tarumba, and has performed with Basil Twist and Little Amal. Her personal style of visual storytelling is heavily influenced by fairytales, nature, and the dark, whimsical, weird fantasy projects of the 1980s. To learn more, visit mollymaslak.com.
