Teaching as part of the Puppeteers of America National Festival!
Explore the dramatic transformation of the marionette and mask in this intensive workshop! In this four session class ~ build your own Roser-style scarf marionette; explore Roser's paper sculpture method to construct a stage-effective mask to adorn the puppet; and learn techniques to bring it to life! Award-winning artist Sarah Frechette will share wisdom from the String Academy, drawing on her years of study with German master puppeteer Albrecht Roser. You'll be amazed at how simple, elegant, and evocative a marionette and mask can be. All participants will take home a completed scarf marionette with a unique mini mask and the basic movement vocabulary needed to create a solo performance.
