Join the Ballard Institute and Museum of Puppetry on Wednesday, April 8 at 7 p.m. for our Spring Puppet Forum "Masters of the Marionette: Rufus and Margo Rose" with puppeteer and teacher Fred Thompson. Thompson, a mainstay of the Eugene O’Neill Theater Center’s National Puppetry Conference, first saw Rufus and Margo Rose perform in 1947, and has had a long and illustrious career in Connecticut as a teacher and maker of dance, theater, and puppetry.
Admission to this event is free (donations greatly appreciated!), and refreshments will be served. Come early and experience our puppet exhibitions— "Reed + Light: Works by Anne Cubberly" and "Masters of the Marionette: Rufus and Margo Rose"—as well as the extensive video resources in our library nook. Forums will also be live-streamed on our page: http://www.ustream.tv/channel/forum-live-stream. For more information, call 860.486.8580 or email bimp@uconn.edu.
