Now Streaming: Abruptly, Austen

Exceptional puppeteer, performer, and writer D.T. Burns and I have worked so hard to create this weird little series adapting Jane Austen’s oeuvre into teeny tiny puppet shows!

We started last October at the Soaring Gardens Artist Retreat and have been working remotely for nearly a year post-retreat to finalize, edit, and release these babies!

ABRUPTLY, AUSTEN uses 7 different puppetry styles, and each video is around 5 minutes long and gives an accurate (in essentials), comedic take on Austen’s beloved books.

The videos are coming out on Tuesdays from now until Halloween. We’d love you to watch, subscribe, and share with your Austenite friends!

The sizzle reel is up now, and you can also watch it here:

ABRUPTLY, AUSTEN at Soaring Gardens

Just got back from the wonderful Soaring Gardens Artist Retreat, where I developed my SEVEN adaptations of Jane Austen’s ouvre for puppets with my good friend and collaborator D.T. Burns. We not only developed the scripts, but also built over 80 puppets and shot videos of the plays, which will be forthcoming on your internet machine to watch in 2023!

Look what we did!
