This is a good video of the relationship between adult and childrens puppetry. It starts out as a childrens puppet show would fun, friendly, entertaining, and informative. Then it turns into an adults puppet show with comedy, violence, and jokes that are not ment for children.

Violent Puppets Gone Wild

Once again I am going to revert to one of my best known puppetiers known as Jeff Dunham the ventrilaquist. He uses different forms of violence in his performance. Most of the violence is verbal abuse used in the form of comedy to make the specktators laugh. Each puppet has it's own personality and with their personalities different forms of verbal abuse. One of my favorite puppets is Waltor an old man who uses crude termonalogy and violent thoughts to talk about life. He always has a negative point of view and likes to degrade people and places. He represents a grumpy old man who likes to blame the world for his problems. He likes to bash his wife as an old bag of bones and the places they do the performances. He always finds something bad to say about the places they perform.

He also has different charectors who use sexual verbal abuse and all different kinds of verbal abuse. The one i found to be the most interesting is one of the newer charactor who represents a violent living charactor. This newer charactor is the skeleton of a terorist bomer. This charactor likes to talk about killing and murdering people. He talks about his bombing experience. This charactor represents a huge scene of violence in our world today. Ever since september eleventh terorists have been in the minds of every american and people all over the world. Our air ports have been under a lot more security since then. This ventrilaquist uses this character to turn a living tradgedy into a comedy show. He uses modern day violence scenes to create his jokes by blowing them out of perportion by bring the terrorist back from the dead to talk about the experience and why he did it. I found this violence interesting because most people wouldn't think that it is violence when actually it's just making fun of a very serious violence in our world.
