Rex Variation

Here is another interesting Rex design for our puppet show Rex and Boots: Super Sleuths. I like the color of the fur and the unusual shape of the head, although this design didn’t seem appropriate for a detective.

Don’t miss Rex and Boots: Super Sleuths at the NoHo Arts Center on Saturday, Oct. 28 at 11 am and 1 pm.

Here is an excerpt of an interview I conducted with Rex and Boots puppeteers Sean Johnson and Anita Coulter.

PJ: After every show you do a behind-the-scenes presentation. Are you afraid of giving away any puppetry secrets?

SJ: The behind-the-scenes presentation is one of my favorite parts of the show. By giving children that peek behind the curtain, we are showing them that this is something they could do at home. I hope that it inspires the next generation of puppeteers.
