In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre HOBT To All Instructors
Start with water, flour, newspaper, paint. Add a large measure of IMAGINATION and a dollop of ARTISTRY to make STORIES about our world come ALIVE through PUPPETS. This is In the Heart of the Beast’s nearly 50 year-old puppet recipe. Since 1973, In the Heart of the Beast Puppet and Mask Theatre (HOBT) has helped to create and cultivate the puppetry community in the Twin Cities. HOBT is a world-renowned theater recognized for its large scale puppets and political activism. HOBT has brought some of the most talented puppeteers to Minneapolis while maintaining a strong connection to the local puppet community. HOBT is a community of artists working within our larger community to create magic together. HOBT makes puppets large and small—monstrous, beautiful, silly, human, plant, animal, you name it. HOBT uses gesture, voice, form, and color, giving life to puppets that help tell stories to represent the world as it is and as we dream it could be.
