The Raggedy Ann Revival Effort is hosting a live Q&A tomorrow, January 14th, with special guests from the original cast of Raggedy Ann!
This year we are finally putting together plans we've had in mind for a long time, to do an official @raggedyannrevivaleffort livestream and answer some of YOUR questions!
We'll be hosting a live stream via our YouTube channel on Sunday, January 14th, starting at 12 noon EST. The organizers will be going over the current status of our revival plans as well as our goals for the future. In addition, we're welcoming four guests from the original productions of Raggedy Ann to the live, who will be chatting about their experience in the show and taking questions from the audience!
If you would like to submit questions beforehand, we have an anonymous google form!
we are sun and moon qpps. we are two bonded feral cats for life. we are forever saving each other, healing each other, and loving everything about each other unconditionally, more and more and more with every passing moment until the end of time itself and beyond.
Every time I see some idiot proclaim "Jim Henson wouldn't have wanted this" under queer-positive, anti-racist or otherwise anti-bigotry posts by Sesame Street, Muppets or related fan accounts, I gotta laugh.
Like, do y'all know who Jim Henson even WAS?! He was, by the gods, no perfect person, but do y'all honestly think he'd be on your side as you spew hatred against minorities? The man that had a TV series created with the literal goal to teach equality and social systems and that'd help stop wars?!
Actually, let me bring up other Muppeteers while I am at it, who'd likewise not support y'alls crap: Dave Goelz, famously basing his characters on himself at least in part, playing the very gender-expression-flexible Gonzo and supporting the queercoding of Boober in "The Glow". Bill Baretta, performing Pepe the King Prawn who canonically has described sexuality as fluid. Richard Hunt, who performed Scooter, Mudwell the Mudbunny and many more, a gay puppeteer. Frank Oz, performer of Fozzy Bear, Animal, Bert, Miss Piggy and more, 1st Gen. Immigrant from a Jewish-Catholic mixed family. Kevin Clash, a Black man who made his own career as a puppeteer since he was a teenager. I could go on and on. Aymee Garcia. Peter Linz. Frank Meschkuleit. John Tartaglia.
Your bigotry has no place on Sesame Street, nor with any Muppet media. It never has. From the start, Jim Henson, his fellow creatives, and the people who carry on his work have promoted kindness, education, creativity and equality.
If you think any of them would agree with your bigotry, you have not been paying attention.
