Eric Woolfe

Eric Woolfe is a Canadian actor, puppeteer, writer, and magician who is best known for work within the horror genre, as he is the artistic director of Eldritch Theatre. The theatre is specialized in horror plays using live actors, puppetry, and parlor magic. Some of the roles Eric did were featured on The Haunted Medicine Show, Madhouse Variations, The Strange & Eerie Memoirs of Billy Wuthergloom, and many more. As for television and film, Woolfe did Beyblade (US dub version), Survival of the Dead, Haven, Murdoch Mysteries, and more that involved his acting skills. As for puppetry, he puppeteered on Nikita, American Gods, and Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium (which featured a cameo from Kermit). Even though he didn't work on any Henson Company production, he has worked with Muppet performers on the Emporium film such as Bob Stutt, Mike Petersen, Trish Leeper, and Karen Valleau. Eric Woolfe has apparently been more focused in horror films and plays throughout his career, making him another one of those puppeteers to do so, like Ron Stefaniuk and Avery Jones. In addition to performing, he has also written scripts for three films; Momento Mori, Hungry Dead Things, and Blackwood Hotel. Since 1994 he has been very active on both stage and screen, though I wonder what year he started working at the Eldritch Theatre. Eric is also one of those puppeteers to dub anime, others include Yinan Shentu, Mona Marshall, Kaori Takeda, and Jim Napolitano, to name a few. Woolfe should consider performing/acting with either the Henson Company or the Muppets, whenever they film something in Canada again. He's definitely got what it takes to be a Muppet performer since he's worked with them. Someday he'll meet up with the performers again, whenever that is. Eric Woolfe, you're a real horror genius when it comes to acting, puppeteering, and writing, not to mention magic. Keep working at Eldritch Theatre as well as other theatres as well. Don't forget what a pleasure it was working with Muppet performers on that one film Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium. You give out heebie-jeebies Eric. Be real eerie Woolfe!

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...

Claire Roi Harvey

Claire Roi Harvey is a puppeteer and performer whose only Henson Company show she ever worked on was The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance. I don't know why she hasn't performed in other Henson projects or even assisted the Muppets for Muppets Most Wanted. Clare has been a puppeteer for film, TV, theatre, and commercials. Outside of The Dark Crystal, she has worked on various other projects such as Feeling Better, three Star Wars films, and Doctor Who, to name a couple. She must have been pretty lucky to work with many creature/puppeteer teams bringing incredible characters to life. Harvey at least had a chance to perform with many Muppet puppeteers such as Damian Farrell, Brian Herring, Dave Chapman and many more. Claire is probably a pretty busy woman to perform in many productions either on-screen or on-stage that feature puppetry. She seems to be like most Muppet performers, and that's performing well with both children and adults for television and film. Harvey also does...
