Behind The Curtain: Ronnie Burkett (The Daisy Theatre) and Wesley Enoch

Acclaimed Canadian puppeteer Ronnie Burkett’s marionettes captivate with vivid, bawdy humanity. Featuring a rotating cast of 40 beautifully expressive characters, all manipulated and voiced by Burkett, The Daisy Theatre’s structure changes every night with improvised satire, comedy, and outrageous musical numbers.
A puppet revue for grown-ups, The Daisy Theatre reflects the state of the world and the pain, beauty, joy and absurdity of life. In the hands of cult puppet master Burkett, this stringed ensemble comes hilariously alive.

I was lucky enough to catch one of Ronnie's shows in NYC years ago. He is the most interesting puppeteer that I know and if you can catch his show, go! It's top notch work, from a brilliant mind. Funny, I had that ah-ha moment in Kindergarten when I realized I was an artist and it's all I'd want to do in life too.
