Manage episode 499859927 series 6935


In this episode, Jon and Leigh chat with Beau Brown and Brodrick Jones, who take us from their first days as a teenage puppeteers to producing late-night puppet slams that draw standing-room-only crowds.
The Puppetry Track events this year, include:
Muppetology Panels featuring Dave Goelz (Gonzo) and Bill Barretta (Pepe the King Prawn)
Ultimate Ninja Puppet Warrior competitions.
The Shadow Puppet Cryptozoology Lab and the Puppet Tea Party
And (fingers crossed) the Fozzie Bear Studebaker, restored and rolling.
Bonus: Your Dragon Con badge also scores you discounted admission to the Center for Puppetry Arts.
