2023 8:00PM doors -- music at 8:30PM ••• ALL AGES $15 in advance / $18 at the door Puppeteers For Fears puppeteersforfears.com/ rock'n'roll puppet troupe A rock’n’roll retelling of the horror classic “The Call of Cthulhu” performed entirely with puppets. Featuring live music from The Elephant. Runtime: two hours+ with one intermission. Rated R for language and themes. Includes flashing lights. Puppeteers For Fears -from Oregon -Puppeteers for Fears, Oregon's premier rock'n'roll puppet troupe, presents an original show that, in a sensible universe, would be impossible: a feature-length musical comedy adaptation of one of the least musical or comedic stories ever: H.P. Lovecraft’s cosmic horror classic, The Call of Cthulhu—performed entirely with puppets, and a live band. See noir detectives, dancing tentacles, anarchist pirates, broken-hearted academics, sassy monsters, and more, as they sing and dance their way to love, madness, and possibly the end of the world. Detective
LaGrasse is searching for a murderer. Francine Thurston’s uncle
vanished. The only clue to both mysteries is a bizarre statue worshiped
by a nightmarish cult. And it’s leading both of them out to sea, toward
a mysterious island from their nightmares—and toward insanity. But, you
know, with singing puppets.
“You haven’t truly experienced Lovecraft’s madness until you’ve experienced it in its truest form: As a puppet musical.” —The Portland Mercury “The most blasphemous ritual of singing and dancing since Chicago.” —SyFy Wire "I don't even like puppets. But that was some next-level puppet shit." —Susan, audience member |
