Reviews: Cincinnati Examiner |

Madcap Productions has gathered some of the best puppet slam pieces from around the country for this unique cabaret experience. The growing popularity of puppet slams has given puppeteers license to showcase some of the most brilliant and innovative and sometimes absurd and bizarre pieces of theatre you will ever see. No piece is longer than seven minutes, and each one has been honed and sharpened by previous puppet festivals. Featuring musicians, improv comedians, and a boundless variety of puppets, Madcap has strung together a truly remarkable group of experimental puppeteers. Let your curiosity get the best of you and get strung out on this fringy puppet cabaret!

EXODUS

EXODUS

Emery Theatre
Over-the-Rhine

The direct sequel to last year’s First Book of: The Bible. Featuring all the characters from the original Exodus story, a similar experience has been crafted using anachronisms and awkward situations as the foundation. Short musical numbers also spice up the comedy as well as dig into your mind with hypnotism, causing what’s commonly referred to as, “Ear Worm Syndrome.” The workshop will be directed by Brian Isaac Phillips of the Cincinnati Shakespeare Company.
