The Jim Henson Company has announced they will develop a new series based off the off-Broadway show John Tartaglia’s ImaginOcean. Tartaglia is a successful puppeteer who stared in the controversial puppet musical Avenue Q and Disney’s Johnny and the Sprites. The new show is about a fish named Dorsel and his friends as they explore the ocean with a social-emotional curriculum. It will be made using the Henson Digital Puppetry Studio that allows puppeteers to control digital characters in real time. Lisa Henson will produce the show and they are searching for co-production partners.
