Expand your Intro to Puppetry experience into a full blown workshop. Over the 4 weeks, students develop their grasp of puppeteering basics into solid skills as we explore the fundamentals of Muppet-style puppeteering in-depth through a combo of easy exercises, wicked challenges, and practical scene work.
both classes at Inscape Arts Building, Vox Fabuli Puppet Studio (Studio 230)
No puppet experience required. Class recommended for ages 15 and up. Please dress comfortably and be ready to move.

***FAQs*** - Do I have to bring my own puppet? No. There will be plenty o' puppets provided to play with. However, if you have your own arm and rod puppet friend, you are absolutely welcome to bring them to class with you.
- Will we be building puppets in this class? No.
- Do I have to be good at funny voices? Nope. We'll be focusing on physical work in this class, so you can puppeteer using whatever voice is comfy (funny voice, normal voice, super serious voice, etc).
