‘What the hell do I do with all these puppets?’: Inside the wonderful world of Ronnie Burkett

“More than a few people said to me, ‘so this is your last show’,” says the legendary puppeteer ahead of his production of Wonderful Joe at TO Live. “Trust me, I never said this is my last show. I think that’s maybe a bit of ageism, or wishful thinking.”

Prude production photo: The King of the Party, played by Lou Campbell, is wearing a tight, light pink full-body suit that covers everything except their eyes and mouth. On their head is a simple pink crown with jagged points. They are standing on one leg, with the other bent and lifted, while both arms are stretched out wide, mid tap dance. They are wearing beige tap shoes. Behind them is a black chair and a pair of pink shoes lying on the floor. The scene is set against a completely black background, with pink lighting highlighting the figure on stage. iPhoto caption: Prude production photo by Daniel Wittnebel
