Turnabout Theatre
The Turnabout Theatre was a company of marionette puppeteers who performed in Hollywood from 1941 through 1956. The company's shows began with marionette performances, and concluded with a revue. The name of the theater derives in part from the fact that the theater seats were former streetcar seats that could be turned to face a puppet stage at one end or the live revue stage at the other. Adjacent seats were labeled with humorous names (e.g., "Hot 'n Bothered," "Salt 'n Pepper," etc.), and after intermission theater-goers would "turn about" to see the show continued at the opposite end of the house. The Theater originated with a group known as the Yale Puppeteers composed notably of Forman Brown, Harry Burnett, and Richard (Roddy) Brandon. Many artists, some quite well known or soon to be well known also participated, including Odetta and Elsa Lanchester, whose brother Waldo Lanchester was a famous puppeteer in the UK. The history of the theater is documented in the film, ''T ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Turnabout (video Game)
''Turnabout'', known in Japan as is a puzzle game developed by Artdink and published by Natsume for the PlayStation. Gameplay ''Turnabout'' consists of 70 levels. The player can only access them in groups of ten, requiring most of the levels to be completed to reach the next ten. The game's main feature is the ability to rotate the stage 90 degrees in either direction (but not 180), causing all the dynamic elements to fall in that direction. The stages are grids, being about 16x16 at maximum size. The goal is to get all the colored pieces to disappear. There are colored balls, which are dynamic, and colored blocks, which are stationary and often act as blockages. When a ball collides with another ball block of the same color, all of them disappear. This repeats until the player makes all colored pieces disappear or cannot make a move, requiring the level to be restarted. The levels introduce a number of obstacles. Colorless blocks are dynamic pieces, which, unlike balls, are not ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
