Puppet Playlist #8: Talking Heads

Stop Making Puppets.

Puppet Playlist takes brilliant puppeteers and talented musicians and slams them together into an evening of live theater to stir the senses -- based on a musical theme selected by the audience. And this time, the audience has demanded The Talking Heads.

The Playlist will feature original works of puppetry inspired by The Talking Heads, mixed with live musical interpretations by some of New York's most exciting young singer-songwriters.

Featuring pieces by:Z. Briggs of WonderSpark Puppets, Jodi Eichelberger & Cathy McCullough, Lake Simons & John Dyer, Jon Levin, Marina Tsaplina, and Primo Primi & Dee Dee.

Music performed by: The Great Republic of Rough and Ready, Swamp Cat, Anna Leuchtenberger, Franz Nicolay, and Tom Curtin.

Our first seven Playlists have played to sold-out audiences, and we are a Time Out New York "Critics Pick!" Reserve your seats early and avoid waiting in the stand-by line.

Previous performers (and their work) have been seen all over New York and throughout the world, on, off- and off-off-Broadway, at HERE Arts Center, Shakespeare in the Park, the Metropolitan Opera, FringeNYC, Lincoln Center, with Jim Henson Productions, and on both American and International TV (yes, that includes the Muppets).
