Bridget Rountree and Ian Gunn are friends (and puppeteers) from San Diego and are performing at Here. They are willing to do a pre or post show discussion/demo for between five to ten people. Let me know if you are interested so I can set something up.

Funding:
The Collector was made possible by grant funding from The Jim Henson Foundation, The Sator Arts Foundation and The Puffin Foundation

About the show:
The Collector investigates the human desire to surround oneself with objects in order to feel better, more than, loved, and successful. It looks at our ability to follow the rules, play it safe, work for large corporations, and the underlying resentment that is a characteristic of modern society. Recognized as a contemporary puppet theater work, The Collector enfolds the audience in a gritty environment of toy theater, table-top puppetry, animated objects, miniature protagonists and antagonists engaging in dialogue-less mystery, woven together by original film and constructed soundscapes.
