The full lineup for MicroTheater New York (March 19 to 21):[A Bloody Good Time]– This toy theater piece is a puppet performance for adults based on Shockheaded Peter and the tradition of cautionary tales for children. See little paper puppets get blown away, cut up, and set on fire, plus much much more.
[So Close & Yet So Far]– A non-verbal poetic toy theater piece that makes use of shadow and light to tell the story of a little girl’s journey searching for a star that reflects the feelings deep in our hearts.
[Dirt]– How can you put down roots when you don’t have a green thumb? With Appalachian inspired music created by Mikey Rose, Amanda Glynn Card uses crankie and shadow puppetry to explore the stories that her Mama told her that her Mama’s Mama told her that her Mama’s Mama’s Mama told her.
[Sub Aquatic Adventures-Under the Sea]– This show is a physical comedy/puppet show in a suitcase that is loosely inspired by the underwater television series Jacques Cousteau.
[Why Did the Moon Lose its Shine?]– Inspired by the news that a rocket hit the moon in March 2020, this work explores the imaginary consequences that this clash would have. In an apocalyptic world, three strangers, partners in circumstances, lunatics, meet.
