Adult Night Out (Live Stage vs. Movie Puppetry)
Fri 23rd 7:30-9:00PM cost $25.00
Join us for a fascinating evening as two local producers battle out the age-old question! Which is better live action puppetry or movie screen puppetry, Can they both exist in this CGI AI mad world? After all how hard can it be to create a full live puppet show, or for that matter a puppet fantasy film? Oh do these two have stories to tell!
Steven M Overton has been in the puppet business for over 50 years, with film and stage credits in the world of puppetry from Disney, 20th Century Fox, Showtime, to the Grim television series shot in Portland. He is joined by Michele Brouse Peoples, Actress. Comedian. Director. Teacher, working in Portland Musical Theater, Portland Parks & Recreation,Gresham Little Theater founder, Gresham Parks & Rec and the Olde World Puppet Theatre and "Folger" Shakespeare Theatre in D.C.
" I am sometimes mistaken for an adult because of my age" “The harder I work the luckier I get..”
The evening starts with a cocktail party and tour of the live stage show production Witch Key, that appeared across the Western United States and Canada for over 30 years. This is followed by a viewing of the short half hour fantasy film Witch Key the DVD. Did you know Witch Key was the first all puppet independent film from Oregon to be featured on Amazon Prime? This promises to be a fascinating and humorous journey into the mystical and magical world of puppets, as Michele and Steve take you behind the scenes of these two popular medias for storytelling. It's going to be a hoot!
