“It’s like having a thoroughbred horse or important automobile: You have to know how to use it,” Hurowitz tells Page Six of the art of puppetry.
Upper East Side socialite Sharon Coplan Hurowitz is known as an art advisor and fine art publisher, but she fulfilled a childhood dream during the pandemic: becoming a puppeteer.
“I have been in love with Jim Henson and ‘Sesame Street’ and being a first-generation watcher and Muppets fan never left me,” Hurowitz, who is on the board of performing arts non-profit New 42, tells us. “In many ways, it was why I got interested in the theater and art world, because how aesthetic it is and the fact that it puts all of that together.”
The pint-size double wears a detailed copy of a Chanel suit from Hurowitz’s closet — also made by Manns — and will be getting more designer duds. Designer Mizrahi — who made a tuxedo for “Sesame Street” star Elmo for a benefit and created looks for Bert and Ernie for Life & Style — is creating a tiny version of one of his looks from Hurowitz’s own closet.
“It’s like having a thoroughbred horse or important automobile: You have to know how to use it,” Hurowitz tells us, adding that working with felt Sharon is much harder than it looks. “Anatomically it is really rigorous … For the most part, your hand is extended above your head for extended amounts of time. You are working in reverse with a monitor. It’s flipping it. In my mind’s eye, I am doing it for the camera so that you don’t see humans, just puppets.
