Puppet Show at monca

Did someone say avant garde puppet show❓

Join us at monca on August 15, 2025 from 7-9PM for a one-of-a-kind puppet show produced by master puppeteer liz HOWLS and musician and artist Drew Simpson 💫

liz was the Assistant Director for the iconic Guillermo del Toro’s Academy Award-winning Pinocchio and has a background rich in puppet design, animation, illustration, and beyond. Drew is a prolific lighting designer and musician with experience in nearly everything peculiar. Liz and Drew are co-founders of Happy Accident an absurdist performance art group 🤡

The upcoming puppet show “explores the exponential pace of overwhelming absurdity in our world. Found objects, large scale puppets and sputtering lights bring you face to face with the cuddly nightmare that is everyday life.” The bizarro performance features three memorable acts and will leave you stunned and full of curiosity 🎉

$25 admission for adults

Tickets available online and at the door.

Doors open at 6:30PM. Seating is provided for audience members. A fog machine emitting vegetable glycerin and distilled water will be on stage.
