Storytelling through puppetry and voice
Jimmica Collins is an actor and puppeteer whose work spans children’s theatre, television and film. Sesame Workshop describes her training at New York University and her development as a puppeteer at the Center for Puppetry Arts.
Her screen puppetry includes Sesame Street, where she performs Grandma Nell, and Donkey Hodie. She also trained through the Sesame Workshop Mentee Program and the Jim Henson Company Puppeteer Training Initiative.
In Buddy, Collins voices Betty Bunny and Scared Flower and controls Buddy’s facial performance. Cedwan Hooks performs inside the Betty Bunny suit: the character combines contributions from both artists.
