À propos de ce contenu audio

 Welcome! We are so excited to bring you our first episode, published on World Puppetry Day, March 21, 2020.


We all have a stake in talking about education, because we have all been to school. It has fascinated me that the more puppeteers and practitioners I come across, the more I found they have a background as an educator in some way.
Katherine Hannaford is no exception to the rule. An art trained teacher librarian in a Western Sydney public high school, Katherine has brought truckloads of puppetry to her students.
What’s more, she is immersing it into her curriculum writing in STEAM - a huge buzz word of the industry at the moment. And as my puppet mentor - it seems only fitting to begin this series with her.
Katherine’s puppet story begins with her deep gratitude and adoration of her teacher, Marie-Martine Ferrari. Ferrari worked with Henson at the 1987 Festival of Puppetry in Charleville-Mezieres. At 23, Katherine would make the long journey to Canberra as often as she could to be taught how to build in Ferrari’s unique style of puppet making.
As a practicing puppet builder for over 15 years, mostly in the Muppet style, Katherine entered my life about 4 years ago as my first puppet making teacher. The deep connection she has to her teacher and to her students is what makes Katherine a world class educator who I am so appreciative to know as my puppet master.
