Giant Puppet Alert
Ripped from the pages of Cool Cleveland
Clevelanders can hook up with "Big Barack" -- the 13-foot puppet-promoter of "Getting Out the Early Vote" during lunch hour Fri 10/24 from 11:30AM - 1:30PM on Public Square. Big Barack (left) is the artistic creation of Robin VanLear and Linda Butler. The thousands of Clevelanders who might be taking a walk through Public Square Friday are being encouraged to get down to the Board of Elections at 30th and Euclid to vote early in this historic election. It took VanLear more than 50 hours to sculpt Big Barack's face in clay, cover the clay bust with multiple layers of paper mache, separate the clay from the paper, paint his head, and attach the head and costume! Incredible.

PGNO Update - October 2008
Seven months later...
To show how easy it would be to update a blog (even for a lazy sod like me), here is the latest information from the Nancy Sander and the Puppetry Guild of Northeastern Ohio.
HEY PIGNOSERS! We are happy to announce our PGNO Special Event #2: a field trip to the Puppet Extravangza at the Abbey Theater in Dublin, Ohio. Dublin is just north of Columbus. That means a two hour trek, but is it worth it!
On Saturday, October 25th there will be two shows: Gray Seal Puppets--so worth the trip alone--is going to perform an absolutely wonderful show, "The Bathtub Pirates" (this show got rave reviews when performed at the National), and Kevin Frisch,that fantastic puppeteer that we saw at our DWP, will be doing "The Wizard of Oz." These shows start at 10 AM . Also there is a possibility of having a puppet slam in the evening if he can get three more volunteer performers who will do a short of about five minutes in length. Can any of you help him out? Great fun...
On Sunday the Cashore Marionettes will perform. I Have no knowledge of them. They perform at 2:00 PM. Nancy Sander is riding down on Saturday and will spend the day and attend the slam if they have it. There are still two spots in the car. If you want to go and carpool call Nancy right away and we'll try to work something out. Oh yes, the cost of the shows is $10.00 per show, $7.00 for seniors or children. RSVP ASAP to Nancy if you want to go and carpool. Directions to the Abbey follow... Sent via BlackBerry by AT&T
