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 season 3 of Sooty, well part of season 3. Let's hope she's still doing puppetry and is thinking about an interview. If anything she would make a perfect puppeteer for either the Muppets or the Creature Shop. Amanda has got to do something in her career besides those two projects, because two projects aren't enough to be well known. Glass must have done other projects in her life that people don't know about, at least until someone interviews her on a podcast or something. In the meantime, she should keep doing whatever it is she's doing, and should remember how much she enjoys doing Sooty and Mongrels. You never know when she'll perform on another project featuring puppetry. Amanda Glass, despite your limited puppetry resume, you're still a great performer in my opinion. Sooty and Mongrels were probably your most well known (and only) projects in your life. But there's still a chance for you to do more and maybe become another Muppet puppeteer. You never know when it will happen Amanda. Keep dreaming Glass!
