Ever wondered what to do when the power goes out as your Rapunzel is about to be rescued by her Prince? Or when the pivotal two person marionette scene can't happen since both puppets are inextricably tangled backstage? Or even when the puppet booth falls down in mid-scene? Improv can be the puppeteer's best friend when the unexpected arises.
