The Noah Ginex Puppet Company was on the WGN Morning News this morning to sing a Neil Diamond song with Jeff Hoover (happy birthday, Neil!). There isn’t always a lot of time to set up or rehearse these bits, but we’ve been coming and doing them for long enough now that we and they are learning some lessons that I think really paid off in the staging of this piece this morning. I know for me, it was probably the best work I’ve done with Ron the Snake—I got some fun dancing tail bits in there.

Also, there’s a brief closeup of what I think is the first public appearance of Fuzzy Erica—a new puppet that Noah made for Erica. She’s the blue one with the green feather hair.
