Show #76 – September 21, 2008
Sep 22nd
Hello and welcome to The MuppetCast! I’m your host Steve Swanson, and in this episode I’ll bring you to Atlanta, GA to visit the Center for Puppetry Arts. The Center just recently celebrated their 30th anniversary, and I was able to capture some very special moments to bring back to the show.
This week will feature the celebration’s opening moments with Executive Director Vince Anthony. Following Mr. Anthony is Cheryl Henson, one of Jim Henson’s daughters, and she talks a bit about the anniversary as well as the new exhibit “Jim Henson: Wonders From His Workshop“. Next we hear Cheryl again, this time from a Saturday morning tour through the exhibit (given for Center members only), and she talks about some of the finer details of the pieces on display, and what was involved in putting this amazing collection together for the public.

Welcome to The MuppetCast! Even though I’m not here in the studio, there’s still a great episode on tap for this week! I’m joined by a very special guest, Vince Anthony. Vince is the Executive Director of the Center for Puppetry Arts in Atlanta which, coincidentally, is where I am this weekend! Vince talks about the exciting events taking place during the Center’s 30th anniversary celebration. This particular weekend is for members of the Center only (which still includes a large number of people), and then the Center is open to the public Tuesday through Sunday every week. Make sure to stop by if you’re in the area, and see their amazing new exhibit “Jim Henson: Wonders from his Workshop”. More >
