A puppetry instructor and box office attendant at Coquitlam’s Evergreen Cultural Centre is featured in the Canadian premiere of Sleeping Beauty Dreams.
The production, by Presentation House Theatre and Mexico’s famed Marionetas de la Esquina, runs at Presentation House Theatre (333 Chesterfield Ave., North Vancouver) from Jan. 26 to Feb. 4 with Randi Edmundson taking on the role of the princess.
Recently, Edmundson’s own puppet show, Freddie in the Neighbourhood, was nominated for five Jessie Richardson Theatre Awards, winning in the categories of Outstanding Performance and Production for Theatre for Young Audiences.
Edmundson is a University of Victoria graduate whose puppetry performance and designs have been seen in theatre venues across the province.
