I called a few contacts in the morning and got a hold of a member of a group of puppeteers that performs at Alhamra. He was at a bank in the area, and would wait 10 minutes for me to drop by and talk.I rushed over and met. I’m glad I did. While his puppetry is more hand puppets, rather than the more traditional marionettes I seek, it was still great to meet. I shared more of what I was trying to do, and he was very supportive. He gave me the number for a puppeteer that I have been trying to reach, but once again his number was off when I tried it. Still, after some of the recent conversations I really appreciated the warmth and desire to help my efforts.I gave a presentation to some multimedia thesis students on my work and process. Afterwards, I met an old class mate for lunch at the Pak Tea house, which has been renovated since I last visited. It is a historical landmark, where many great minds of Pakistan have sat, and I’m sure smoked up a storm.I received a call from a member of the Multan Lok Ras Party I had met in my first few days in Karachi. He had been looking for a puppeteer for me. He did manage to find some women from the family who are singers, referred to as Garrwis, I think for the small pots they use in their music. He had given them my number and his own for the puppeteers to contacts us.I taught my class, then received a call from a puppeteer. With two contacts in Multan, I knew where I had to make plans to head next.
