I just wanted to say a huge THANK YOU to Lyndie - I have learned to much and will keep exploring. You have inspired me with your eternal curiosity and confidence that everything is possible.
I don't think I'll ever stop learning or discovering things but it's given me a great basis from which to explore my craft.
Another big thank you also go out to all the other people I have had the pleasure of working with this year.
So this blog post marks the end of my year (better late then never) - I actually finished in early september but have been catching up on all the non-puppet making/performing side of things since then. I've enjoyed writing this blog and keeping track of the things I have been doing so I'm planning to keep adding things every now and then when something interesting happens over on the page marked Puppetry - Still Exploring.
In the mean time heres a little video of Lyndie talking about the puppets in the Little Angel Theatre's recent adaptation of Macbeth.
