The group is very welcoming. The team (or puppetmasters as I was later to call them), were all from Naples; the participants from Istanbul, Texas, and myself and another artist from Australia. It really can be a small world.
We introduced ourselves and it is "spooky" how there are commonalities between us all so far as ideas of performance and creativity. I guess it is to be excpected in some was because of the nature of the workshop, but it boded well for the next 4 days.
The team from Naples are head puppeteer Silvana Carotenuto and some of her PHD and Masters students.
Di Ball attempts to get her geek back.
