Abstract
- The article "How do we watch puppetry differently from other forms of theater?" discusses the book "Muppets in Moscow" by Natasha Lance Rogoff, which provides a firsthand account of the creation of the Russian adaptation of Sesame Street. The book explores the challenges faced by the production, including political corruption and resistance to westernization. It also delves into the cultural differences surrounding puppetry, with Russian staff initially advocating for traditional Russian puppets over American Muppets. The article also mentions Claudia Orenstein's book "Reading the Puppet Stage," which analyzes the dramaturgy of puppetry and offers detailed descriptions of various puppet shows. Orenstein emphasizes the emotional journey and meaning expressed through puppet performances. The article highlights the impact of Orenstein's scholarship and teaching in the field of puppetry.
