I realize that you all are not into puppetry, but I know you admire good mechanics. Joe Cashore has created a collection of the most complex marionettes ever made.  For example, he has an elephant marionette that has strings going into his head and down into his trunk to articulate it.  This elephant can pick up a peanut on the floor and put it in its mouth, among a bunch of other very life-like actions.

He will be doing some performances this weekend in Reading that are open to the public.  Here is the info;

Joe,
I appreciate the information.  I am a theatre buff (thespian), and I love puppetry.  When I saw that on your survey, I was amazed. I thought the art was dead.  So awesome to see it alive and well, and now in Reading. 

Please keep us posted on local events. Great Stuff!
