In 2003, the Olde World Puppet Theatre did just that, with lifesize body puppets in a
show set to Meco's disco rock opera score. The show was performed both indoors and
outdoors. This low budget, but extraordinary broadway-style show was a crowd pleaser
every time.
Last year this rather unique show was blasted by a southern hurricane, and changes
came blowing in the wind.
There are now plans afoot to retell this unique story, setting the entire production way
down in New Orleans during Mardi Gras. New music, new puppets and an entirely new
approach are being planned.
Come back here to the South Wing to stay informed as the new show progresses.
Meanwhile enjoy the old production. We did, it was a blast to perform.
