Ryan Dosier – It seems that we here at The Muppet Mindset have developed a snazzy new trend with our interviews: doing audio based interviews! Today we have the start of yet another super exciting, super awesome interview with a Muppet performer. Leslie Carrara-Rudolph is best known as the performer of Abby Cadabby on Sesame Street. She has worked with the Muppets since Muppets Tonight in which she performed Spamela Hamderson and a host of other characters. Leslie is married to Muppet Mindset interview favorite, Paul Rudolph. She is currently workshopping a brand new live show for families that mixes puppetry and theater: Wake Up Your Weird starring Leslie and her hilarious puppet Lolly Lardpop. For the next three Fridays we’ll have our interview with Leslie posted. You can check out Part 1, 20 minutes of me and Leslie talking about her start with the Muppets, below!
