Steaming Ahead

The Great Plains Puppet Train, fired on by a wonderful, big family of puppeteers, educators, artists, facilitators, helpers, and one curious newcomer and admirer, me, is off to a fascinating start.
With housing and transportation under control and a three hour nap behind me, I joined the group Thursday evening for dinner and two excellent performances.

A one woman shadow puppet show, Calliope, gave us the answer to what happens "When Night Dreams" in three culturally diverse stories projected onto a big screen.

The second show, "Roman Reverie" was a paper or toy theatre production by "Little Blue Moon" in which two puppeteers transported us to Italy and the adventures of two young lovers.

I will go into these performances in more detail later; for now it is off to breakfast and a day of workshops.
