Puppet Club "Shadow Play/Ad Libs", ages 7 to adult

Puppeteers will make imaginative and colorful creatures out of cardboard inspired by shadow puppet designs. Participants will write or improvise their own short puppet interactions and use their own voices to help their puppets come alive in a group performance of short scenes and sketches. Experimentation with simple lighting effects will be encouraged. Puppet Club welcomes children 7 years old and older, with or without an adult helper, as well as unaccompanied grown-ups of all ages. Puppets are made of inexpensive or donated materials.

About Puppet Club

Puppet Club is a loosely associated group of individuals age 7 and up --children, teens and adults-- who produce and perform 2 or 3 short plays per year under the direction of Carol Serotta. While some dedicated puppeteers return to participate many times, beginners are always welcomed. 

Type and construction of puppets is somewhat different for each play. Emphasis is on innovation and individual invention using very low-cost or free materials is encouraged. Participation fee is $35 ($30 Hubbard Hall members) for each 6-10 week session.
