Tell It With Puppets

Tell It With Puppets brings to every aspiring puppeteer the skills to put on a puppet show. This DVD provides children and adults with flat felt puppet patterns . The aspiring puppeteer will find detailed explanations on how to make and decorate puppets for every story line. Sewing skills are not necessary to create puppets that are ready to go in an hour or two.

Scripts are provided to get you started in this theatrical adventure. Hopefully puppeteers soon develop enough confidence to create their own scripts or improvise interactions with the different characters.

To do a puppet show, every puppeteer needs to know the five steps that bring the show to life. These five steps are the same steps followed by professional puppeteers when they perform for the public. Tell It

With Puppets demonstrates these five steps so effectively that it is possible for children and adults to begin performing immediately.

This DVD makes it possible for puppeteers to put on a show with puppets they make, or to just do puppet shows with puppets made by others. The flat felt puppets are used in this DVD because larger, bulkier puppets are awkward for young children to use in multiples. The secret of this DVD is that it provides the means and techniques for an adult or child to do a show, all by themselves without needing to set up rehearsals with others.

Looking for away to become involved in a theatrical enterprise? Tell It With Puppets gets you involved immediately in an ancient art form.

Tell It With Puppets also includes an interview with Aurora Valentinetti, an internationally celebrated puppeteer, who explains the value of puppetry and shows classical examples of the various types of puppet.
