ventriloquist dummies

Ventriloquist dummies are puppet-like figures used by ventriloquists to create the illusion that the puppets are speaking independently while the performer controls them. Typically made of wood or plastic, these dummies often feature movable limbs and exaggerated facial expressions. The ventriloquist must practice speaking without moving their lips, allowing the audience to focus on the dummy as if it were alive. This art form combines performance, humor, and storytelling, often seen in comedy shows, theaters, and television, making it a unique form of entertainment. The interaction between the ventriloquist and dummy engages audiences in a whimsical manner.
