Stacia Newcomb

Stacia Newcomb is a voice actress, puppeteer, actress, and writer who's best known for performing Star (voice and puppetry) on The Good Night Show. She also puppeteers Noodle and a chicken on separate Sprout/Universal Kids shows. Even though Stacia never performed on Sesame Street, he had appeared with the main characters of Pajanimals when they guest appeared. Newcomb has lent her voice to a few projects such as Pokemon (English dub), Team Umizoomi, Gotham Knights, and most recently, Mickey Mouse Funhouse. Her website states that she also worked in theater such as writing and starring in two one-woman variety shows, as well as doing several plays and musicals across the world. She is another one of those amazing performers who can do all kinds of entertainment. Stacia Newcomb should maybe ask Sesame Workshop if she can work on Sesame Street, but that's only a thought, it might not actually happen. Other puppeteers she interacted with include Victor Yerrid, Donna Kimball, Forrest Harding, and voice actress Debra Wilson. I wonder if she can still puppeteer today since she has not done it for some time. I'll bet Stacia was very honored to lent her voice on a show featuring Mickey Mouse since not a lot of puppeteers get to meet Mickey Mouse anymore. Let's hope Newcomb will continue to either puppeteer, voice act, or write for future projects. If it wasn't for her, there wouldn't be a The Good Night Show for children back when it was on the air before being removed in 2017. She'll be recognized by fans as being Star since she did it for years. Stacia Newcomb, you've made millions of children happy when you puppeteered for Sprout/Universal Kids. Keep on performing and you'll do great. And nobody will ever forget you for what you did. Excellent work Stacia. You really are a "star" Newcomb!

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...
