Apocalypse Puppet Theater

We shall perform "So I Married a Seamonster- The Sordid Tale of Capt. Smitty" upon our bicycle-drawn traveling puppet theater, The Apocalypse Stagecoach. This show features bunraku puppets, original songs, and our Sababtini column wave machine. The show will be repeated throughout each day, interspersed with live musical sets of guitar, banjo and/or accordion from two of our puppeteers, Freddi Price and Jesse Roadkill.
