A Chensational Puppet has officially been on Broadway...well, sort of.
It's not everyday that someone gets to go on stage with the cast of a Tony Award winning show. It's even more unusual for a puppet to do so. But that is exactly what Andrew-MacDonald Smith and Maurice Tipo did this past March, 2006.
Andrew entered the character of Maurice Tipo that he created (and that was
built by Chensational Puppets), into a contest for
Avenue Q.
Well it seems that after a second contest, to see who would be chosen to perform on stage with the cast of Avenue Q, Andrew and Maurice won again.
Andrew is a true talent. You can see his winning video entry
here. I will be sure to update his progress and hopefully he will be using more
Chensational Puppets for his future puppet projects.

Keep up the great work Andrew!
