Holiday downtime

My hope is that most of you will not have noticed, but early this morning my web host had problems with one of their servers. In fact, the server all of my sites are hosted on suffered from a water leak, causing the server to not only die, but all of the backups too. As such I’ve spent the better part of the day restoring all of my sites from my own backups (lucky I took some last week!). I’ve replaced any content that has was not included in my backup, which fortunately, wasn’t much of anything.

Thanks for your patience, and enjoy the rest of your holiday!

@Jack,

You're welcome, and thank you for the kinds words! I'm always happy to hear that the info I provide is useful :)

The theatre I mentioned in the article is this one, the Chuncheon Puppet Theater. I went there in 2004 for the annual Chuncheon Puppet Festival. It's an amazing place and if you've never been I really recommend it. They have a small puppetry museum there as well.

If you have any more questions, let me know.

Once again it’s time to update you with news about Australian puppetry events: and once again I find myself simply posting the OPEN pdf file, since it has all the news conveniently written for me. :wink: In it you will find updates about the Tarrengower Puppet Festival, which I’ve mentioned below anyway along with other non-OPEN news; the Melbourne Indigenous Arts Festival; performances by Dream Puppets and Richard Bradshaw in Victoria.

The upcoming Tarrengower Puppet Festival in March has finalised its inaugural program, with info about shows, workshops and ticket prices. Inclusive in this news is the notification that the 2nd Puppetry Slam (previously mentioned here) will take place on the Sunday night of the festival. More info about it can be found at the above website.

Additionally, I have news about Peepshow Inc, who will be performing A bird, a tree, the moon from 15-18th Feb, with a preview on the 14th. It’s a site-specific performance under the old elm tree at City Square (corner of Collins and Swanston Street), Melbourne. Admission is free, but seating is first-come-first-served. More info about the show can be found at their website.

News about the 4th National Puppetry & Animatronics Summit is still forthcoming; I’ve been told that presenters will be notified on the 10th Feb, so hopefully a program of sorts will be available soon after that. In the meantime, you can now access their website. I’ve now added the link to this website, and to the post on puppetry festivals in Australia.
