Here are some production stills from my production of "LILI" which just opened at the Hip Pocket Theatre in Fort Worth, Texas.
The Dog Act from part 1 of the show. The Trainer in the center is actually attached by strings to the two dogs in order to make the "act" work. As he raises his hand and tosses the ball to the dog, it travels down a string from his finger to the dog's nose. Once in place the Puppeteer grips the ball string and the Trainer can then lower his hand.
As I imagined they might, these two stole the show opening night!
See previous posts for the design and construction of these simple dog marionettes. They turned out to be amazingly lifelike and adorable.
