The Unveiling of an Unforgettable Collaboration

La Historia Society, the leading platform for community and society-related content, is thrilled to announce an extraordinary partnership between The Jim Henson Company, renowned poet educator Kwame Alexander, and Academy Award-winning musician Common. This groundbreaking collaboration has resulted in a captivating new live-action puppet series that combines the magic of poetry, puppetry, and music.

Introducing a Unique Blend of Artistic Expression

With this exciting venture, The Jim Henson Company, recognized worldwide for its innovative puppetry and storytelling, has joined forces with Kwame Alexander, a prominent figure in the literary world, and Common, an artist who has continuously pushed boundaries in the music industry.

The Power of Poetry

Poetry is a timeless art form that allows individuals to express their deepest emotions, thoughts, and experiences. Through carefully crafted words, poets can inspire, provoke, and engage audiences in ways that resonate long after the words have been spoken or written.

In this extraordinary live-action puppet series, Kwame Alexander brings his incredible talent as a poet and educator to the forefront. Known for his New York Times best-selling novels written in verse, Alexander's work encourages readers of all ages to discover the beauty and impact of poetry.

Poetry, Puppets, and Music in Perfect Harmony

Accompanying Kwame Alexander's poetic narratives is the masterful puppetry of The Jim Henson Company. For decades, The Jim Henson Company has captivated audiences with their iconic characters, imaginative worlds, and innovative puppetry techniques.

Unveiled for the first time in this live-action series, the puppets come to life, weaving together stories that transcend language barriers and ignite the imagination. The seamless integration of poetry and puppetry makes each episode a visual and auditory masterpiece.

Adding another layer of depth and emotion to the series is the musical genius of Oscar-winning artist Common. With his soulful melodies and thought-provoking lyrics, Common's music has touched millions of hearts around the world. His contributions to this collaboration elevate the storytelling and create a powerful synergy between poetry, puppetry, and music.
