Jamie Konchak

Jamie Konchak is a Canadian puppeteer, performer, educator, and creator known for a two-decade career in performing for screen and stage. She served as one of the additional puppeteers on Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock performing alongside Geneviève Paré, Ellis Lalonde, Ali DeRegt, and Reese Scott, to name a few. It must have been very exciting for Jamie to perform on a reboot of the classic Fraggle Rock series, and with numerous legendary Muppet performers as well. In addition, Konchak also works frequently at Ghost River Theatre as both a collaborator and "Artist in Residence", doing lots of performance skills like puppetry for example. Some of the shows within the company she performed on include Giant, Reverie, Something to do With Death, and Frontier. Besides performing and puppetry, she also educates performers and college students at the University of Calgary and also Six Degrees Music & Sound. Jamie Konchak is pretty active in the theatres across the Calgary area of Canada, which was where Fraggle Rock: Back to the Rock was taped. If or when that show gets picked up for a third season, she should return to the team of additional puppeteers and keep the Fraggle franchise going. Until that happens, Ghost River Theatre is where she belongs within the world of entertainment, theater-wise at least. Jamie should be proud of being a performer and puppeteer for many shows and educating people interested in the entertainment field. I sure hope Konchak still remembers doing the Fraggle Rock reboot with John Tartaglia and the other principal performers on that show. She probably still keeps in touch with her fellow co-workers from that series, for doing both seasons and both holiday specials. And hopefully she'll have her own page on the Muppet Wiki in the future, you never know when it'll happen. Jamie Konchak, you've done fantastic on the Fraggle Rock reboot and you're still doing great in the theatre as both a performer and educator. Keep on performing because you never know when another puppet opportunity will come. You've got the skills and the strengths of a puppeteer, and persistence too. Continue to be an inspiration, Jamie. Rock on Konchak!
