Horreur Sympathique
Did you think you knew shadow puppetry? Think again! It’s coming THIS SATURDAY! Inspired by the poetry of French spooky weirdo and proto-goth Charles Baudelaire, “Horreur Sympathique” is an uncanny, ethereal journey through nightmares, spun in shadow for your bemusement, featuring newly translated assembleges of Baudelaire’s verse. See it at Griffith Park near the Merry-Go-Round Saturday, April 27, 2024 at 7:00pm at the first ever Smilocide Faire!
As You Like It!
Do you love Bill like we love Bill? He turned 460 this year! A big achievement for someone who already holds the distinction of being the greatest wordsmith in human history ever anywhere ever! We hope to bring you a new, funky, freaky adaptation of Shakespeare’s gender-bending classic, As You Like It, realized entirely in puppetry ThIs YeAr! And to promote it, we’re publishing a brand new edition of the play with new commentary, annotations, and DOZENS of illustrations by Ana Id! Keep your ears to the ground for updates. This shall be our sport!
