Welcome to Jake's Happy Nostalgia Show, the podcast where nostalgia comes alive!
This week, we speak with the incredibly talented Jean Marie Keevins — a puppet artist, producer, writer, designer, and one of the most versatile creative forces in the puppetry world! Jean Marie shares her fascinating journey from building puppets for Avenue Q and Disney on Ice to her time as Vice President of Puppet Heap, where she coordinated puppet builds for numerous projects with The Muppets. You will also hear behind-the-scenes stories from her work on beloved shows like Johnny and the Sprites and It's a Big Big World, as well as insights into her creative process as Associate Artistic Director of the Eugene O'Neill Theater Center. Jean Marie also talks about her company Little Shadow Productions, how she's brought powerful stories like All Hallow's Eve and Aanika's Elephants to life through her producing work, and briefly touches on her coaching work.
