Most people know Darci Lynne for her amazing puppets. But what does she do before the curtain goes up? She practices talking in completely different voices. She stands backstage, surrounded by curtains and equipment, and just has fun. She calls it “Impressions with yours truly,” a playful peek at her practice before a show.
It shows her trying out many famous characters. She mimics the excitement of the Target Lady and the serious tone of Hermione Granger from Harry Potter. Then, she perfectly catches the breathy voice of Jennifer Coolidge wanting a hot dog. She even switches to the high, happy sound of Barbie and the classic squeak of Mickey Mouse.
Still workin on these but this was fun | Darci Lynne
She jokes that she is “still working on these,” which makes it feel real and humble. People watching this love to see her just being herself. Viewers often say how talented she is, even when she is just practicing. It is fun to see her step away from the puppets and show off her other vocal skills.
Seeing her practice impressions is a fun, rare look at her vocal talent. That same talent is what brings her puppets to life. But making puppets work is not just about the voice. A different behind-the-scenes clip shows what happens when things do not go perfectly. This time, her puppet Petunia is the star of a funny mistake.

This is a funny blooper. It looks like they are getting ready to film. Someone says “Ready Set Go.” Then, the “fishing wire,” which likely controls the puppet, seems to get tangled or break. It is a moment where the magic stops, and you see the real work and funny mistakes that happen behind the scenes.
Darci Lynne’s talent is her incredible control over her voice and her puppets. These clips show she is also funny and real, even when things go wrong. She brings so much joy to the stage, combining humor with amazing skill. Follow Darci Lynne on Facebook, Instagram, and YouTube. She is always sharing something new to make you smile.
