In between commissioned work and teaching, I’ve slowly been working away at my own puppetry piece, Jars: A puppet play. It’s a short piece about eating, control and art that has been taking shape in my weird head for a couple of years. Thanks to the Puppetmongers for recommending me for an Ontario Arts Council Theatre Creators Reserve grant to help me further develop Jars. Being recommended by the Puppetmongers is especially meaningful to me because not only are they puppet superstars, I used to watch their shows when I was a wee child in Toronto, which is when I first developed my love of puppetry.
