Ricky & Doris: An Unconventional Friendship in New York City. With Puppets!
Please consider supporting more content like this by becoming an AARP member: www.aarp.org/becomeamember
Ricky Syers is an off-beat 50 year old street performer who found his calling as a puppeteer after a lifetime of manual labor. While performing in New York City’s Washington Square Park, he met Doris Diether, an 86 year old community activist. They became friends and he made a marionette that looks just like her. Now she’s joined his act and the two of them can often be seen performing together.

"I'd rather die on the street as a street performer, than try to create a life that satisfies someone else." Well spoken sir. Many people would love to be free, but few have the actual fortitude to make it happen.

Struggling artist is one of the hardest lives to live. Bless him for letting his talent heal others and not giving up on his passion.
My sister and I met Ricky and "Chops" about 6 years ago outside a bar in Dunellen, NJ. We were amazed by his talent and artistry and hired him to do a private performance for the children in our family. I was cleaning today and came across one of the photos. Decided to check online to see what Ricky was up to. So glad to see this video telling his story. Thanks AARP!

Blessed are they who can parlay their inner child to fulfill their artistic inclinations AND maybe put some grub on the table. The DETAILS in his marionettes! The machinations that render their MOTIONS equally realistic! (The love that's gone into each & every character shows itself with every one). 💖

I went to a country where I knew no one and where I didnt speak the language and the customs and everything were completely different from what I, or probably even you, would be used to.

"I wasn't a laborer trying to be an artist. Or a steelworker trying to be an artist. I was an artist, trying to be all of those other things. So, that's who I really am." Damn, this one hit deep.
This lovely man has triggered a memory for me of my Great Uncle, a little French speaking illiterate man born in 1900 Chassell, Michigan. He spent most of his adult life hunting and fishing in solitude in northern Manitoba, Canada. He had an incredible collection of hand whittled marionettes, and other pieces. I remember specifically his ability to make curiosities from one piece of wood that had independently articulated moving parts inside, whittled from outside inward. As a child, they were magical🤗, and so was he! Thank you so very much for who you are and what you do for the world. Thank you for sharing it too🥰. ❤️🇨🇦
Oh these just make me smile! When I first saw the dog I thought it was real and thought how cute it was that it ran like it did. This pupeteer is so talented!
Absolutely awesome to see a man follow his heart rather than the mighty dollar or societal norms. People like Ricky & Doris certainly make life uniquely interesting, thank goodness. 💞

Your existence must be sterile to the point that you feel the need to sterilize all that you see in fear that it may contaminate you. I wonder why you felt compelled to watch this video, but it's apparent that you needed something to critique...to call _"filthy"_ .

How about John Cena who has done exponentially more for the Make a Wish foundation than any other star. Or me, who has chosen to work in fitness with the senior and disabled populations when I could have easily chosen to chase the private rich people. Or let's say Bill Gates and his foundation. A job is a grind where as work is passion and if you do anything with passion you will touch someone's heart, somewhere, somehow.
