Pulling Strings at Puppetworks Theatre | BK Stories

Started in the 1930s and featuring music recordings by Bruce Haack, a legend of electronic music, this scrappy puppet theatre has been putting on shows for over 80 years.
Known for their 38-year run of Macy's holiday window displays and weekly shows at their Park Slope theatre, Puppetworks shows that puppets entertainment isn't just for children.

Great short documentary on Puppetworks, a Brooklyn gem! Founded by legendary puppetmaster Nicolas Coppola who is interviewed and featured within this fun and informative eight minute video treasure.
