Jim Henson’s Fantastic World, a traveling exhibit from the Smithsonian Institution, opens at Seattle’s EMP this coming weekend. The exhibition includes drawings, storyboards, television and movie props, photographs of Henson and his collaborators, and, yes, puppets (muppets even!). The EMP has supplemented their exhibit with an interactive puppet TV studio provided by local puppetmaker Annett Mateo. Titled the “Mudgarden Experience at the Rainbow Connection” it’s a puppet rock band inspired by Dr. Teeth and the Electric Mayhem. Visitors can operate the band members and create their own TV performance.
