Here's - Center for Puppetry Arts

of an American adventure. Mr.
Brown tells a diverting story;
his humor is contagious, and
his style is lively. He writes
here of his experiences
throughout the country as he
travelled, vagabond style, with
his college room-mate and a
troupe of puppets - a nucleus
which later became the
famous Yale Puppeteers. This
book contains nothing of the
mechanics of puppetry, its
history or its technique. It
offers agreeable reading,
whether the reader is
interested in puppets or not. It
follows the wooden comedians
and their masters through
Michigan, the East, the South,
and finally to Hollywood, where
the puppeteers set up a quaint
little theater in their own
workshop, became suddenly
the rage, and were able to
establish a real theater in Los
Angeles. But restlessness and
Brown,
the desire for variety brought
