U of Tampa at Henry Plant's 1891 Tampa Bay Hotel

THE PLANT HOTEL -- The most elegant site ever for a puppet festival --

-- and now immortalized as an [original Toy Theatre by Lynn Zetzman]. Viewers may download, print, color and cherish as a memento of this outstanding puppet festival.

In addition to his week-long work-thru workshop on Toy/model theatre performance techniques, Robert Poulter (our Toy Theater Titan - brought over from the United Kingdom) delighted P of A audiences with his production Konjunktur . . a comedy of Big Business with Jon Bankert serving as the alternate with his version of Peter Pan. More than 150 people came to see "Toy Theatre" and Robert and Jon graciously repeated their shows to accommodate the large audience.

Lynn Zetzman performed several plays during the Workshop Hours -- including a fabulous Nepali Folk Tale, a Toy Theatre version of Punch and Judy and a lewd piece The Seven Lady Godivas by Dr. Seuss adapted (but not censored) by L.Z.
