Dan Milano

Dan Milano is a puppeteer, voice actor, writer, producer, and director who has worked in various shows over the years of his work. His two most well known puppet characters are Greg the Bunny and Warren DeMontague in which he's performed them on the show Greg the Bunny. Dan is also best known for his work on Robot Chicken, Mad, and Titan Maximum to name a few. Milano got to work along with many celebrities like Sarah Silverman, Eugene Levy, and most notably, Seth Green. Not only celebrities, he also worked with Muppet performers like Drew Massey, Victor Yerrid, and Paul McGinnis to name a few. His film career placed him in development assignments for many companies, including the Henson Company, which he should have performed in. Dan Milano is probably one of the busiest performers in this world today since he worked with many companies and did many tasks on or off set. Some of his collaborations have included projects for Nickelodeon TV and being part of the staff for Dreamworks Animation's partnership with Netflix. He is yet another person who wasn't trained in puppetry from the start but had an obsession with the art form as a kid. Looks to me that Dan is more focused primarily on writing for screen but he still voice acts on occasions, when he's needed. I wonder if Milano is currently doing work on Robot Chicken today. There wouldn't be any Greg the Bunny or Robot Chicken without him. Dan Milano, you're a master of television and film whether you are doing puppetry, voice acting, or writing. I hope you are still keeping in touch with Massey or Yerrid with whom you worked with the two of them on Greg the Bunny. Until you step down from work, remember this "There's No Business Like Show Business", if you know what I mean. Fantastic career of yours Dan. Tremendous Milano!

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...
