We were recently blessed with the opportunity to travel abroad. And there's more to come for sure...
 

Jason, Mary, Spencer, John, Amy, Gretchen and Wendy in Oulu, Finland.

In October of 2003, Drama of Works was invited to the Barents Region International Puppetry Festival. They were one of two American companies, sharing the honor with Eric Bass's Sandglass Theatre. They performed FOUR shows: curiouser and curiouser, Doctoer Faustus, On the Backs of Fishes and the big hit: The Sid & Nancy Punch & Judy Show. They also made some amazing new friends! We're forever grateful Akseli Klonk (Jann, Tommi, Tuomus, Sirpa, Kiimo and Nikolai) and Alina!!!

John, Spencer, Gretchen, Wendy and Amy in Istanbul.

May 5th-12th, Drama of Works was at the Istanbul International Puppetry Festival. According to their site, they are the first American company to be invited in years - if ever! They performed WARRIOR to two great crowds and got a cool award to take home! Thanks to Larry of Shadowlight Productions for being our American comrade, Albert for teaching us about finger exercises, Guillome for a great tech and Carlos...he knows why...

Fred, Crystal, Gretchen, Spencer, Amy and John in Prague.

Later in May, the crew travelled to Prague for the 8th World Festival if Puppet Art. We performed WARRIOR and it was a special time cause Crystal got to come along and see her play done internationally. We even got an award! The jury gave us a special honor for ORIGINAL ADAPTATION. What an honor! And again we add new friends to our list of puppet peers: Ronney, Ahmad, and of course the girls of Kivotos Mithon (Bessie, Maria, Stella and Spiridoula)!

Next, Gretchen goes to Bali July 15th.

Gretchen has been accepted into the UCLA APPEX program where she will travel to Bali to study international collaboration for six weeks. Stay tunes for updates and photos from that trip!
