"As an art form, puppetry has enjoyed a significant expansion over the past twenty years. This can be seen both in terms of its popularity in mainstream theatre and in the amount of attention that it now receives from an academic audience. This increased presence in the practical and theoretical realms is also underlined by a diversification in the definition of puppetry itself, with the term now being used to cover everything from found or traditional 'performing objects' to super high-tech projections and constructions"--
