CATS

CATS 〰️
I designed and fabricated three mouse hand-puppets! Our overall production concept was that this “Cats” takes place inside an old abandoned theater. In alignment with this concept, each mouse puppet was uniquely theater-themed (ASM, Costumes and Hair/Makeup)! These mouse puppets danced in “The Old Gumby Cat” and “The Rum Tug Tugger.”
I created an original pattern for these puppets and constructed them out of found/leftover materials.
I built this “human music box”, which rotated the character Victoria.
