A.K.A. Sonny Vegas, Eddie is the Puppet Creator, Co-Writer and Director.

.
   Eddie studied at Second City Improv and developed an Improv Troupe called the Happy Clams with fellow funny Improv brother John Sullivan III.

   He also studied under Dobie Maxwell at Zanies and has made numerous appearances on stage with his Comedy Stand-up.

   Eddie has been a regular on the Chicago Cable Show called Psychobabble. He has played over 20 different characters in the shows 5 year run.

   Eddie has performed stage magic and Comedy Magic. His Comedy Magic routines where with the Vegas Brothers Comedy Team.

He builds puppets and creates during the day. Pole Dances at Night.

John Sullivan was born years ago.

   He began performing right out of the womb, with his brilliant performance of “Baby Hamlet: The Musical”.

   Soon after, it became his mission to make everyone laugh, by any means necessary. On a whim, he began to take classes at the fabled “Second City”. This decision would lead him right to the steps of his first class, where he would meet Eddie Horn, and a fast, not gay, love affair would ensue.

   History would be made when the legendary “Happy Clams” Improv and Comedy Troupe would wreak havoc across the great landscapes of Illinois. Time would take it’s toll, and having made everyone in the state laugh at least once, The Clams would crawl off on different paths.

   John got married, was almost killed, and had a baby girl. His mind never stopped wondering what could and should have been. Then one day, Eddie called and said he was working on something interesting, and interesting it was.

Power Lifts 305lbs, Runs the 40 yard dash in 4.4 seconds, can ask a million questions in one minute and also makes a very cool puppet.

Justin is the brains behind the camera. His skills of stage set up and correct lighting are an asset to any production team. He is also very skilled at puppet making and has sold his puppets online.

Justin is single but is dating Playboy's Miss July 2007. After his break up with super Model Alessandra-Ambrosio, he said " Never again will I date another Supermodel, When you take them out to eat they order the most expesive thing on the menu and sit there an only drink their bottled water.

   Jimmy was born during the Grateful Dead’s European Tour in ’72. Somewhere on the autobahn, it’s been said.

His parents kept him for awhile, and then they had to leave the tour to attend a wine tasting, which at 3 weeks old, was completely understandable.

Little Jimmy was passed around for the rest of the tour, seeing the sights, and being raised by the entire Dead Head community. When the tour ended, a lot of them stayed behind.

   Touring Europe was pretty cool, at 2 years old, not only had he seen more than a lot of people had ever seen, but Jimmy was more potty-trained than most Europeans.

Missing the band, he was UPS’ed to San Francisco, finding refuge once again amongst his traveling family.

Between the ages of 4-17, life was a song, and the world was kind. 1990 started out great, and turned into a major turning point in Jimmy’s life. The Dead were headed to Chi-Town.   He could not get into the show. Sad and confused, he wandered off. He lived free in the suburban Forest Preserves. One day, while wading in the Des Plaines river, Jimmy was approached by a couple of guys, who wanted him to do a show, of course, he said yes, there was free pizza involved.

   Years passed, and it was time to move on. Africa, Aurora, Morocco, Siberia, and Hawaii. Finally, Jimmy ended up in Washington. Some guy offered him a job on the street, and it changed his life yet again.

Ted makes some super cool stuff. He is at work right now.
Ted stems from the rolling tumbleweeds of Romeoville or as he calls it , Romeo-tucky.

After a daring escape from this town, he came up with a way to broaden his horizons and see the rest of the big blue marble and joined the Marines in which he served for several years.

After being rejected from Clown College, Ted took his need to release anger, and although people mistake him for Robert Plant , he
decided he didnt want to work and bang on the drums all day.

He is also a talented artist and designer and looks forward to help create some groovy sets and props for HELLO PUPPET

Mark "The Shark" Yurkiw was also in The Happy Clams at one time. Think so, anyway. It's been a while. We believe Mark also may have appeared a few times on Psycho Babble and probably was a writer-performer on the Funny Show.

It's been confirmed that Mark was part of the sketch comedy troupe The Bucking Fastards, an ensemble that we hear lasted for exactly one performance...but oh, what a show it was! It also appears that Mark had a bit part in the independent film Dreamscape and he very well may have participated in a TV pilot called Highwood Bowl, which we're told has been described as a combination sitcom, improv, soap opera and reality show. On Highwood Bowl, we're pretty sure Mark appeared with Anthony Simone as "Stan & Stosh, Polacks With Attitudes."

There's also a rumor that Mark is an IPA (which we're told stands for Illinois Press Association) award recipient and writes for the Riverside-Brookfield Landmark, and someone told us his articles also have appeared in Suburban Life, Wednesday Journal, and Forest Park Review.

We hear Mark is the current Grand Shiek of the Chicago Bacon Grabbers, the local tent of the International Sons Of The Desert, and he and Ted Okuda co-wrote a book called Chicago TV Horror Movie Shows: From Shock Theatre To Svengoolie. We don't believe it, but someone else also told us Mark was a "research consultant" on another book, The Golden Age Of Chicago Children's Television, by Ted Okuda and Jack Mulqueen. He's supposedly done some other stuff too. But we're still investigating that. Mark lives by himself and usually wears dark glasses.

Mark is the Interviewer for the skits and is Martin's manipulator.

"None dare call it macaroni"

Kimi is cool and sexy all wrapped in a flour tortilla.

After serving a few months in the womens correctional center, the guards realized that Kimi wasnt your ordinary prisoner and should be out in the world of comedy, to give something back to the world.

She has since then worked with The Happy Clams, FinNibblers, Bucking Fastards, completed her voice over demo with KRJ Productions.

Often confused, Kimi would yell out "youre it" after completing "skin tag" removal at the University of Aesthetics where she earned her state license as an Esthetician.

Some of her favorite past-time activities include hanging out with Robert Plant ( aka Ted ) , playing air guitar, cooking (and this woman can cook), wrestling with her puppy GABI the wonder Boxer, waxing butss, and figuring out ways to kidnap Lou The Dog.

She looks forward to working with HELLOPUPPET as well as her zany counterparts.

Born from mildew in a outhouse sink, Marco has slowly grown into a human half donkey and joined Hello Puppet!

Marco has 4 eyes, 23 toes, inhales oxygen, exhale carbon dioxide , blinks every 10 to 12 seconds and has horrible B.O. that is the main cause global warming....

In his free time, he hands out poorly xeroxed communist newsletters that are printed over old barely legal magazines!

Marco in enjoys drawing and animating his own animated
series titled 'Disproportion Cartoons'! Marco actually invented the first cartoon animated ever made in history! Then a man named Windsor McCay stole his
idea, took a time machine to the 1914 and created it before him...

What are Marco's plans for the future? He plans to find a cure for nerdism , no matter what the costs....
