Tim DeHaas

Tim DeHaas is a puppeteer who only performed with the Muppets on The Muppets Take Manhattan. He served as an additional puppeteer, performing characters for certain scenes, assisting Kermit on his first day of work, and doing singing objects for the finale. Tim should have performed in other projects with the Muppets as soon as filming wrapped. Before performing on The Muppets Take Manhattan, DeHaas worked as a puppeteer on local television in Bangor Maine, according to a newspaper. Why didn't he do puppetry after the film? I also saw a picture of Tim DeHaas in a picture with Caroll Spinney. When did that happen and where did he meet Spinney? I think that he would have made a great performer along with other Muppet performers. Others like Peter Baird, Cheryl Bartholow, and Glenngo King have also only worked in that one Muppet film. So I would say that he is not the only one who did only one film starring the Muppets. However, Tim should reveal where he is and what he's doing now because there might be some people (like me) wondering about what ever happened to him. DeHaas is not only a one timer, he can also be mysterious based on his whereabouts. I hope he will reveal where he got a picture with Caroll Spinney and when it happened. Tim DeHaas, you did pretty well within The Muppets Take Manhattan and everything prior. I just wish you did some more work with the Muppets after the filming wrapped up. When you have a chance, try and get in touch with someone like Dave Goelz or Frank Oz and see if you can catch up with stuff. It's never too late to work again Tim. You are superb DeHaas!

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...

Gordon Robertson is a Canadian puppeteer who has performed on and off with the Muppets for many years. His most notable work with them was on Fraggle Rock as the body of Pa Gorg and various other characters on the series.

Robertson even performed on the Sesame Street film Follow That Bird and it's Canadian co-production Sesame Park.

Outside of his work with the Muppets, he performed with Shari Lewis on Lamb Chop's Play-Along and The Charlie Horse Music Pizza. Apart from her, Gordon Robertson did various other shows, his most notable ones were Zoboomafoo and Groundling Marsh.

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...
