Reese Scott

Reese Scott is a Canadian puppeteer and puppet builder who served as one of the additional puppeteers on Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock. In addition, he also built some of the background characters used in the second season, which shows off both of his talents. Reese has often been paired with Brendan James Boyd for they both built and performed puppets on Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock. Scott must have been excited to assist on the reboot since he got to meet legendary Muppet performers such as Karen Prell, Donna Kimball, and John Tartaglia. Outside, he is one of the co-founders of Puppet Stuff Canada (with Boyd and Meghan Schech) which does professional puppet builds and performances. Some of the projects he did include Fintastic Fun, Creatures of the Deep, Bird is the Word, and UnBEElievable. I'd say that in the future, Reese Scott will have a chance to be put in the Muppet performer category on the Wiki. You never know when he'll get to perform a character on Fraggle Rock or any Henson projects coming soon. In the meantime, he is still working with his company at making and performing puppets for TV, theater, film, and other venues. There just isn't anything Reese can't do, not yet anyway. Based on the picture above, Scott is probably one of the newest Canadian puppeteers to build and perform puppets. Let's hope he'll continue to be in the world of Fraggle Rock for the future since that franchise is having a big breakthrough lately. As one of the songs of the show states "the rock goes on" meaning a big hope that the series will continue in the future. Reese Scott, you have done so well on Fraggle Rock and at Puppet Stuff Canada. Keep on building and performing puppets so the world can see how much talent you've got. Your friend Brendan James Boyd must have been lucky to have a performing partner like you. Until then, don't stop working Reese. You put the "rock" in "Fraggle Rock" Scott!

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. Gordon has also performed with the Muppets on The Jim Henson Hour, The Muppets: A Celebration of 30 Years, The Muppets Wizard of Oz, and more. Robertson even performed on the Sesame Street film Follow That Bird and it's Canadian co-production Sesame Park. His Creature Shop work has placed him on TNMT II, The Neverending Story, and Cats & Dogs. 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...
