A Portrait of the Puppet Master as a Young Man – Great Big Story


Puppets—they’re child’s play, right? Spend five minutes watching Barnaby Dixon and you’ll surely disagree. At first, it might seem strange for a 26-year-old to be hand-building puppets in his bedroom and shooting videos of his performances for a living, but the puppet prodigy’s creations are completely original and totally addicting to watch. Barnaby started his career solely to make YouTube videos (https://www.youtube.com/user/barnabyd…), but recently hit it big after winning a 50,000 Euro grand prize on the German puppet talent show, “Die Puppenstars.”

  1. Thanks for sharing the video. The puppets look so cool. They kinda look like toys though.

  2. A different kind of puppet altogether, so clever! It brings joy, to him and his audience, so hurray puppeteers!
