1.Evolution of Puppets---->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eNKefNALEwQ

I chose this video because it shows that puppetry wasn't always about Elmo or The Muppets.  That puppetry started as more of an adult form of entertainment.


2. Mudeye Puppet Company- 

The Mudeye Puppet Company is an educational puppetry arts organization dedicated to providing esteem-building arts workshops, reducing waste, encouraging creativity through use of reused materials and offering local communities exciting neighborhood-based puppet performances and parades.

I picked this puppet company because a puppet company exactly like this came to my elementary school in Duluth every year.  This isn't the same company, but they educate students on the same issues of self-esteem, reducing waste, reducing energy, etc that I remember seeing every year.  The show had an impact on me since I still remember them because they were funny, entertaining, and educational
