ALCHEMILLA PUPPETWORKS was founded in 1986 by Bernd Ogrodnik, a German-born puppetmaker and performer who is often described as a modern renaissance man. He was trained as a classical musician, has illustrated several children¹s books, and has run a successful woodworking business for many years. As a puppeteer, he is able to bring together all of his talents to create beautiful productions, which he describes as a Œfood for the soul, not chewing gum for the eyes.¹ Mr. Ogrodnik¹s acclaimed productions and exquisite marionette and puppet creations have been presented on stages, television, and in film, both in Europe and the United States.
