On behalf of Expert Village I'm Emily DeCola in the puppet kitchen in NYC and today we are going to talk about theatrical mask. So we are going to start today about lots of different kinds of masks.

I'm a performer, designer, director with puppets and mask and part of why work in both mediums because they are so closely related.

Whether it is theatrical or entertainment or ritual or spiritual religious contents. So as you can see behind me I have a couple of different kinds of masks laid out and we are going to talk about all of this.
