One Of The Gang - Marilyn Agrelo

<description>&lt;p&gt;In the darkest point of Toronto's lockdown, Ronnie Burkett made an instagram post about the day when we would all be together again. As Melbourne and Toronto emerge from these dark times, it finally feels like the right time to release this episode. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;It's also my birthday. So "let's all eat cake."&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;In this two hour special I speak with Ronnie from 'Puppetland' about how he constructs his plays and orchestrates his audiences, as they become participants in his immersive work - Forget Me Not. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;We discuss the health of puppetry in Australia and abroad, and discuss the ubiquity of the muppet whether it has an impact on other forms of the craft. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;p&gt;Ronnie is a delight to speak with and a true master of the craft.
