Kathryn Molloy

Kathryn Molloy is a puppeteer, fabricator, and wrangler of puppets/costumes/creatures and is known for doing numerous projects by the Henson Company. She puppeteered on Slumberkins, the Biutyful music video, and Puppet Up - Uncensored (since October 2022). Kathryn managed to be one of the performers by attending Henson's puppeteer training initiative in 2015 and 2021 which got her in. Molloy also got to work with several other new performers of the company such as Catrina Quintanilla, Stoph Scheer, Cat Rock, and Ben Schrader. Her outside puppetry work includes projects for several networks such as Nickelodeon, Nick Jr, Discovery, and numerous commercials. As for fabrication and wrangling, some of the projects she did over the years include Skeleton Crew, Crank Yankers (reboot), Conan, Doom Patrol, and Five Nights at Freddy's 2 (upcoming). I bet Kathryn Molloy felt very excited when she became one of the main performers of Puppet Up, because she gets to work with the legends like Ted Michaels, Dan Garza, Peggy Etra, Colleen Smith, and the Muppets own Bill Barretta. I saw online that she also has a big part on award shows, coordinating the audiences and/or directing talent seating. She is probably the only puppeteer ever to play a backstage role on award shows. Let's hope Kathryn continues to perform on Puppet Up for the near future. After all, training with the Henson Company made Molloy the star she is today whether is being a puppeteer, fabricator, or wrangler for anything. Maybe she'll even do a show with the Muppets, since she worked with Bill Barretta on Puppet Up. You never know when somebody like her will be asked to assist the main performers on a future Muppet production. Kathryn Molloy, you are a super talented puppeteer, fabricator, and wrangler. Keep on working with puppets, costumes, and creatures because that's what you do best. And always feel honored because you got to work alongside the legendary Barretta on Puppet Up. Very crafty Kathryn. From apprentice to natural Molloy!

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...

Bob Stutt

Bob Stutt is a Canadian puppeteer and writer whose Henson work started on Fraggle Rock. On Fraggle Rock, he served as a principal supporting puppeteer, performing episodic/background roles, and even filled in as regular characters (to pre-recorded tracks). For Sesame Street, Bob worked on the Canadian co-production, Sesame Park where he replaced Tim Gosley as Basil as well as the first Sesame Street film Follow That Bird. Stutt even assisted the Muppets within A Muppet Family Christmas and The Jim Henson Hour. Why didn't he show off his writing talents to Jim Henson? Outside of Muppets, his best known show was Under the Umbrella Tree as a writer and performer of Iggy Iguana and others. Other shows Bob Stutt puppeteered on included The Big Comfy Couch (also wrote), Today's Special, and Caillou, just to name a few. His writing credits were seen on Wimzie's House, Eric's World, Groundling Marsh, and Radical Sheep projects (ex. Ruffus the Dog). He is somewhat of an expert ...
