Adrian Rose

Adrian Rose is a puppeteer and puppet builder who hasn't performed with the Muppets but has done a short by the Henson Company called Tall Poppy. For that short she got to work under the supervision of Brian Henson who produced and directed. Adrian also got to work with several Muppet performers for that one short like Paul McGinnis, Nicolette Santino, Elizabeth Hara, and Kevin Clash. Outside, Rose has been building, wrangling, and performing puppets of many types since she started in 2006. One of the performances include various short films produced by Heather Henson and her company Handmade Dreams. Other shows and films she's worked on include Crank Yankers (reboot), Mr. Neighbor's House, and Captain Underpants, just to name a few. Adrian Rose had the honor to puppeteer with Bob Baker Marionette Theater as one of her first jobs in L.A., California. She also built puppets with many studios such as Screen Novelties, Stoopid Buddy Studios, and even her own freelance work. Other performers she performed with on her freelance projects have included Robin Walsh, Christine Papalexis, and Alice Dinnean. Some of the shows Adrian made puppets for include Spongebob Squarepants, Robot Chicken, and Greatest Party Story Ever. Rose must have felt pretty excited when she got selected to be one of the performers for that Henson Company short. Who knows, maybe she'll do more Henson Company stuff in the future, or maybe she already did. You never know if or when that will happen. Adrian Rose, you are a pro at marionettes, stop-motion, and hand puppetry like a lot of puppeteers. I hope that you'll keep on building and performing puppets of all sorts. Not to mention, keep showing the world what sort of talents you got so that everyone will recognize you for who you are and what you do. Until then, always keep busy and try to influence fellow puppeteers like you Adrian. You are a puppet genius Rose!

Heather Quinn

Heather Quinn is a British puppeteer, cosplayer, singer, and gossiper who did many puppet characters for social media. She is also the only puppeteer who does cosplay, in other words, dresses and acts like their favorite character from a show. Heather also has a love for anything vintage, which I personally find to be unique for a person to like things from the past. Quinn hasn't done anything Muppet-related in her life, in fact she's probably never even heard of the Muppets or the Henson Company. However she has puppeteered many times for social media such as TikTok and Instagram. One of her puppets resembles an Ewok from the Star Wars franchise, which could give a clue that she's a Star Wars fan as well. In addition to puppetry, Heather Quinn has been gossiping on her website about her activities, her travels, as well as her habit of drinking tea. She's also sung all of Sondheim's Company, Into the Woods, and Sweeney Todd, as stated by her on her own website. Ther...

Amanda Glass

Amanda Glass is a British puppeteer and costume maker who puppeteered on season 1 of Sooty (2011) as well as part of the third season. She also puppeteered on the Sooty video Sooty: The Big Day Out as well as making many of the puppets' costumes on the series. Besides doing Sooty, Amanda was also an additional puppeteer on Mongrels for three episodes. I personally think Glass should have puppeteered on a project by either the Muppets or the Henson Company (mostly in the Creature Shop). It's currently unknown what the performer looks like since the picture above either has her on camera or under one of the puppets. On both Sooty and Mongrels, other puppeteers she performed with include Iestyn Evans, Yvonne Stone, Simon Buckley, and Toby Olie, to name a few. Maybe someday Amanda Glass will have her chance to meet one of the Muppet performers in the UK or maybe she will learn about the Henson Company online. Nobody really knows whatever happened to her after 2018 when she did seas...
