79.226.2.162: /* Show Titles */ Added transition from hand puppets to rod puppets

'''DoPE''' (the '''Department of Pawpetry Entertainment'''), is the crew behind the [[pawpet]] show at [[Eurofurence]]. The show is also known as the '''LSD Show''', as it was originally set at [[Lionel C. Scruffycat|Lionel Scritchie's]] Dormitory. Despite the drug-refering puns of the acronyms, the only drugs involved in making the show are pure and utter nonsense along with a great love for puppetry.

== History ==

The initiative for the show came from [[Fairlight]], who took his lion pawpet to [[ConFurence 11]] and met [[TeddyRuxpin]] of [[PawPets West]], who was organizing the pawpet events at the convention. Fairlight immediately became addicted to puppeteering and organized a short music parody show for Eurofurence 6. Additional puppeteers on that show were [[Lynard]], [[Eisfuchs]] and [[Jaryic]]. The LSD Show became one of the main events of the following Eurofurences.

== Contributors ==

Since Eurofurence 8 the stories have been written by [[Cheetah_(musician)|Cheetah]] and [[Eisfuchs]]. Cheetah is also the director and sound effect creator of the show. The head puppeteers are:
* Eisfuchs (performer and voice of [[Lori]] the naïve [[vixen]])
* Fairlight (performer and voice of [[Poke]] the big-mouthed and perverse [[ferret]])
* Lynard (voice and performer of [[Lionel C. Scruffycat]] the rational [[Lion (species)|lion]])
* [[TaniDaReal]] (voice and performer of [[Mika]] the tough [[Snow Leopard]]ess)

Additional long-time puppeteers and stage-hands are [[FinFarenath]], [[o'wolf]], [[Tigerseye]], [[Xan]] and [[Zefiro]]. Backdrops have been designed by TaniDaReal. Props, additional puppets and various set elements usually get designed and built by various crew members. The puppet stage manager and assistent director is [[Reesa]]. Sound and pre-recordings engineer is [[Jaryic]], lights are operated and designed by [[Richard Nightfox|Nightfox]]. The crew also includes the [[Eurofurence]] video documentary staff under direction of [[BigBlueFox]] and additional helpers for scene-shifting, curtain operation and lighting. The show at Eurofurence XI had more than 20 people on staff.

Among the special guests on the LSD Show were [[Lisanne Norman]], [[Chairo]], [[Uncle Kage]] and [[Heather Alexander]].

== Show Titles ==
* '''Lionel Scritchie's Dormitory''' (Eurofurence 6)
* '''Medieval Madness''' (Eurofurence 7)
* '''F.I.A.''' (Eurofurence 8)
* '''Ceška Paradisa''' (Eurofurence 9)
* '''The Phantom of the Pawpet-Show''' (Eurofurence 10)
* '''Songs of the Old Ages''' (Eurofurence 11)
* '''The Hounds of Blackwhite Castle''' (Eurofurence 12)
* '''The Unlucky Thirteen''' (Eurofurence 13)
* '''Dreamcatchers''' (Eurofurence 14)
* '''Operation Desert Snow''' (Eurofurence 15)
* '''Ogwambi''' (Eurofurence 16)

From here, the crew decided to part with the original main cast and moved to new characters on a per-show basis, abandoning the classic hand puppets for bigger, selfmade rod puppets, operated by at least two pawpeteers per puppet.

* '''Year of the Rat''' (Eurofurence 17)
* '''Pompeii''' (Eurofurence 18)
* '''End Tide''' (Eurofurence 19)
