The new live improv show 'Puppet Up', launched recently by The Jim Henson Company, is a blend of Theatre Sports and Live Puppetry-for-Television, which I believe could well have been inspired by the Broadway musical 'Avenue Q'. The puppeteers are in full view of the audience, which gives yet another dimension to the puppetry art and can be extremely comical. Thus it's well suited to adult puppet improv. Take a look at a clip here!
