Hanging With the Mice

Working with art mice frankly is a lot easier than working with live actors.  They don't have a schedule; they will patiently pose for three hour photo shoots and hold their hands up as long as needed for fittings. They never argue with the director, get bored or wander off. Other than a propensity to fall over, they are pretty much perfect.  Ovidius, Fabia and the cast of Pyamus and Thisbe arrived from the Ukraine after spending a week crammed in a cardboard box, a situation I feel bizarrely guilty about. The rest of the mice, including Pygmalion, Baucis and Philemon were rescued Christmas ornaments. Frankly, I think their talents were wasted there.  Despite some fundamental mobility issues,  I think this group has some real acting chops -- especially mouse Pygmalion who is my pick for Best Wool-Felted Mouse Actor in a Latin Novella. Below are some outtakes from the process.
