Learn to be a Puppeteer
Puppets have been used to tell stories since theatre began, and can be found everywhere from stage to screen. Puppetry celebrates all aspects of the arts and is a “must-have” skill on every resume! Dig into actor-to-puppeteer transformation exercises, explore the hands-on vocabulary for all puppets, and have a blast in a puppet skills boot camp!
