What is a "ventriloquist's dummy"?
A ventriloquist's dummy is a puppet used by a ventriloquist to create the illusion that the puppet is speaking independently of the performer. The dummy is designed to resemble a character, often with movable parts such as the mouth, eyes, and sometimes hands. The ventriloquist manipulates the dummy while speaking or singing, making it appear as though the puppet is talking or performing on its own. Ventriloquist's dummies are commonly used in comedic acts, storytelling, and entertainment to engage the audience and enhance the performance with interactive dialogue and humor.
