“A GENIUS OF PHYSICAL COMEDY.”- Entertainment World. “HILARIOUS. Her physicality is impeccable.”-Star Phoenix News. “Unbelievably charismatic.” - The Charlebois Post “Remarkable feats of puppetry.” ​- CBC

A spicy puppet cabaret, hosted by a sassy grandma who keeps trying to steal the show. This beautifully twisted variety show is performed by Ingrid Hansen, who also puppeteers for Jim Henson Company’s Fraggle Rock. Watch behind-the-scenes as Hansen performs a live puppet film, animating cheeky vignettes in the palm of her hand and projecting them onto a huge screen. “Both live and magnified on screen, in cunningly angled cameras and mirrors, we see Hansen create characters from her own hands, fingers, tongue, in a saucy and jostling vaudeville of ‘stars’. NUTTY, INGENIOUS, MESMERIZING.” - 12th Night. Costumes by JIMBO (winner of RuPaul’s Drag Race.)

FOR AGES 14+.
