::Brian Henson in Conversation with Neil Patrick Harris: An exclusive discussion with Brian Henson hosted by Neil Patrick Harris. The one-time-only show took place at Cobb's Comedy Club. The event included live puppet demonstrations and in-depth discussion of the creative process behind Henson's work, various puppetry techniques, and developing comedy for puppets. 
::When asked about the event Harris said: "puppets have always been my bag. The first fan mail letter I ever wrote was to Jim Henson when I was 6 or 7 years old. I learned how to share from Sesame Street, and my sense of humor from movies like the Labyrinth and the Muppets. Sunday will be like Inside the Actor's Studio, only with puppets."Neil Patrick Harris in San Francisco For Sketchfest
