We know a lot of people ask 'how do you get to Sesame Street?',
but once you're there, what should you say on Sesame Street!?
Fortunately, there are talented writers to answer the call - like
this week's guest Liz Hara. Liz is a puppeteer and writer who has
worked as a writer, performer, and wrangler on Sesame Street,
created costumes for The Lion King and Shrek musicals, built for
The Jim Henson Company, and is now a writer on a top-secret
Untitled Puppet Show.
We talk to Liz about her trajectory as a young talent, discovering
puppetry, and using all facets of her artistic knowledge in her
professional life. She'll also delve into the importance of costume
making for upcoming builders, the trials of writing scripts for
puppets, and how to turn Grover into an M&M cookie.
