ver the years the Links page has grown tremendously
with the number of venues added to the listings and the number of artists appearing at the concerts. In 2008, the page was the largest - and the most slowly
loading - page on the site. As a result, this year it is being split into three sections. The motto of the three musketeers - "All for One and One for
All" seemed a fitting way to convey that the three pages are still part of the same one links section. Since some cities/venues do not release their concert
information until well into June or later (depending on the series), the Links section is continually updated during the summer as information is received.
Click on a link below to go to one of the three sections. Also, this year you will find images of puppets depicting characters from a number of familiar stories interspersed throughout the "Links" pages.
Read more about the puppets below, and continue scrolling down the page to see the images.
This summer, www.dorothyswebsite.org is pleased to be able to present images of puppets
from an extensive collection of U.S. and international puppets. A brochure from their home base says of puppetry that "it is an art form communicating beyond age, culture, ethnicity, language and education." Puppets
have existed in many cultures for centuries, and modern puppets are rooted in the folklore of Europe and Asia. There are many kinds of puppets including hand puppets, rod puppets, shadow puppets and marionettes. World
Book Encyclopaedia says that "The word
"marionette" [puppets controlled by string or wires] comes from Little Mary, a type of puppet of the Middle Ages. During this period, which began about A.D. 400 and lasted through the 1400s, many people could not read or write.
Priests used Little Marys to teach stories from the Bible. Marionette shows gradually became comic plays that were intended to entertain rather than teach religious lessons. But the plays grew so coarse and worldly
that religious authorities refused to let them be performed in churches. Marionette shows then became street entertainments that were performed in parks and at fairs." Included on the links pages are images of puppets from shows based
on folk tales, familiar characters from stories and literature, fables and international myths and plays. The "City Links" page and "Bands A - L" contain puppets primarily from the U.S., and "Bands M - Z" page has both international puppets and
puppets from U.S. shows based on international stories or characters. All images are presented courtesy of this summer's guest. Information accompanying the images includes the origin of the puppet and
the character or story represented.
