They’re certainly having fun judging by the big smiles on their faces.
It’s certainly a creative way to bring joy to an audience without having to spend a lot of money for backdrops and costumes.
Kara Whitworth, Jackson Hannah, Alyson Whitworth, and Lukas Richmond take to the stage but it’s only their faces seen.
Those arms of theirs belong to their friends Cami Johnson, Camryn Garcia, Margaux Shutt, and Jocelyn Garcia.
It’s a puppet show but this time with real people.
Living puppets is more like it!
The simplicity of it is what adds to make it all the more hilarious.
Nothing fancy with the music either as they start it with Survivor’s “Eye of the Tiger”.
No Rocky Balboa moment here though.
It’s a lot of arm and (leg?) movements to the music, with a nice flex at the end.
Then the Irish jig comes in to get those little legs moving.
It is a near perfect dance that takes the luck of the Irish to amusing levels.
Kara, Jackson, Alyson, and Lukas must have spent so many days laughing and having a blast during practice with Cami, Camryn , Margaux, and Jocelyn.
That’s what friends are for!
Many would say that puppets are so old fashioned, well here’s a fresh new take on them.
It’s amazing what people can do when creative minds come together.
You have to be impressed with their coordination and rhythm too!
What’s surprising is the transition from the Irish jig to Soulja Boy’s “Crank that”.
And you know what? They do execute the same dance with some gravity defying moves!
You really cannot help but smile with these guys and girls.
Were you dancing in your seat too?
Great, that means you’re pretty warmed up for some “Kung Fu Fighting”!
You have to wonder how they came up with this idea though.
And with any performance, you really have to win the audience over first so that everyone pays attention to what you’re doing.
Maybe they drew straws or something to decide who got to show their faces and who got to stay in the back.
And what silly number would be complete without “Cotton Eye Joe”?
Those smiles never once disappeared!
You cannot mention music video puppets without remembering N’Sync’s “Bye Bye Bye”, right?
The boyband even followed that up with “It’s Gonna’ Be Me” where they were toys dancing like puppets.
There’s really something about the whole marionette vibe.
And if you’re wondering how they set themselves up behind those curtains, just wait until the end!
Even this viewer got confused saying,
“I’m glad they showed how they did the feet at the end. lol I thought those were their arms but someone else was puppeteering the feet, but it turned out that was in reverse.”
It’s so simple and yet so brilliant to watch!
