Join the staff and crew for a look inside Bob Baker Marionette Theater’s audio archives. With over 60 years of archived tunes and songs, dance your way into the joyful world of marionettes and more with BBMT on Puppetphonic.

HOUR ONE: From Bob Baker, With Love w/DJ Starlight
Get ready to board a showboat traveling right down the Tunnel of Love located inside the Bob Baker Marionette Theater’s vinyl archive. On this melodic journey, you will encounter songs of love from across the decades that pulled the heartstrings of our very own Bob Baker.

About the DJ:
Even though DJ Starlight (BBMT puppeteer, Diego Montoya) has made it clear that their true love is for Broadway’s greatest hits, they have dedicated time on Earth to curating a playlist of love songs fit for any human. This compilation of amorous tunes does not come from a fondness for Valentine’s Day, but rather from their inability to resist a theme.

HOUR TWO: Bob Baker’s Around the World in 60 Minutes w/The Professor
Join us on the global stage for a waltz through Bob Baker’s vinyl archive, where the The Professor will take you on a tour across the world to experience music from different countries and cultures. From Germany to Japan, you’ll see the diversity of Bob Baker’s catalog highlighted through instrumental and vocal recordings that will make you feel as if you’ve been whisked off on a jet setting adventure!

About the DJ:
The Professor is a teacher of all things cultural, as well as an enthusiastic member of the BBMT community. His passion for the two has brought him deep into the archives of the theater’s media collection and he’s unearthed some artifacts that he simply must share with the class! From singers to sitars, the global musical gamut will be taken on in his groundbreaking lecture. Be sure to pay attention, as this will all be on the final exam.
