Bob Isaacson and Speedy Will Be Performing 

It is always a pleasure for me when I receive emails letting us know about upcoming events with members of our fraternity that are involved.

Today I received this great poster advertising our good friend Bob Isaacson who will be performing on April 5th. I thought this is something I had to put up on the blog for everyone to read and see.

If you are going to be in the area you should try to go and see Bob and Speedy. I wish I could!!

Paul Winchell and Jerry Mahoney:  Last public performance 

Steve Meltzer from the Santa Monica Puppetry Center in California sent me this wonderful article which he wrote for the Puppetry Journal back in the spring of 1976. With his permission I am happy to share this nice article written about Paul Winchell’s life.

Mr Melter along with Kelly Asbury hosted the final performance that Paul Winchell did back on March 13, 2004. The picture you see (above) of Paul Winchell is one of the last pictures taken of him and Jerry Mahoney in performance mode (FYI…the Jerry that Paul Winchell is using was built by Ray Guyll). What a great treat to see this.

Thanks again to Steve Meltzer for sharing with of us here on Ventriloquist Central.
