puppetmaster

Today we went downtown to the Oregon Historical Society to see the exhibit of Michael Curry’s puppetry.  His work is probably best known for the Broadway show The Lion King.  I highly recommend heading down to see it if you are in the Portland area.  You are allowed to touch and actually work some of the pieces so it’s especially fun for the kids.

It also got me thinking of this video I saw some time back of Royal de Luxe performance of The Sultan’s Elephant .  I’ve seen it many times and still brings me chills.  Really, if you haven’t seen it, you must go watch it now.  You will be so glad you did.
