Well, isn't it always the way...just as I was planning to get things back on track with Bear Town life got in the way I got sidetracked by something else. Only this time it was something very, very cool - I started working with a bunch of other puppeteers and puppet builders in Toronto and I've done more puppetry work in the past nine months than I had in previous two and a half years. The video above is of our first public performance back in February.

We've been focused on doing bunraku-style puppetry work which has got me thinking about a totally different approach to the puppetry in Bear Town. I'm not really sure when I'll be back at Bear Town full-tilt, but the gears in my head are turning.
