It is not often apparant what goes on behind “And they say love is blind” .. . One of the groups puppets speaks on the merits of being good. Familiar characters enchant their young audiences at many performances Have you ever wondered what goes on behind the stages of a puppet production? A puppet group known as P.A.C., Puppets in Action for Christ got started when the advisor, Barbara Martinez, a 1972 BUS graduate, and currently a teacher at War- rensville Sr. High, went to Student Mission Corps. Here she learned to work with pup- pets. The group started out with adults but now the show is run by Junior and Senior High students. Without practice, hardwork, and prayer, the key words to success, a puppet produc- tion could turn out to be a disaster. Holding a puppet up for a period of five to fifteen minutes was not as easy as it looked. Skill, a little bit of muscle and endurance was needed. This group actually consisted of fifteen members, six of which were students at the High School. However, many B.H.S. guys and gals have actively belonged to this group trying to spread the word of Christ through puppets. Performance meant months of preparation and cooperation, but their rewards were numerous. P.A.C. has traveled from Randall Mall to Mexico, and has performed in both English and Spanish. Needless to say, they were a success. .... but whatever it is, it sure shows in the eyes of the audience. 22 Student Life P.A.C.
