Leslie Carrara-Rudolph pinch hits in puppet festival

Due to unforeseen circumstances, Los Tititeros de Binefar will be unable to open the Orlando International Puppet Festival this Friday, July 10th. Sucks. However, Emmy-nominated Leslie Carrara-Rudolph is here to kick off the festival with a performance/workshop caled "Wake up Your Weird!"
"Leslie Carrara-Rudolph will do a performance workshop with composer/ pianist John deHaas that will give you all the tools you need to "wake up your weird "and spread joy with your own unique talents! With the help of a few puppet friends, music, art, and all out silliness, you are sure to leave this show with a smile on your face, a song in your heart, and a new imaginary friend in your head!"
Leslie Carrara-Rudolph is best known to TV viewers as Johnny and the Sprites' "Ginger", and Sesame Street's "Abby Cadabby." Recently nominated for "Outstanding Performance in a Children's Series" as Abby Cadabby, Leslie is also a member of The Jim Henson Company's "Puppet Up" puppet improv troupe that recently toured Australia.

I'm so excited Leslie will be back again! I'm a huge fan. Wish I could remember what I did with my fan club t-shirt. (Yes, seriously.)

I almost got to perform with her during Puppet Slam, but I think my material was too blue. She is creative, smart, amazing and funny. I admire her.
