*Adult Edition!
Step into the enchantment of A Slice of Crazy Pie, a mesmerizing cabaret style marionette puppet show meticulously crafted by Madison J Cripps.
Since 2006, this captivating production weaves interests, viewpoints, and eccentricities into a spellbinding journey. Characters like Pinkey the Mayor and Ratty Ratkinson engage with audiences, while diverse settings from the moon to the street provide intrigue. With themes spanning ecology to well-being, the show's fluid duration accommodates any space.
Beneath the puppetry lies a world of creativity and interaction, where harmonica melodies and singing add depth. Blurring imagination and reality, the show thrives on creative engagement. As the curtains rise, all ages are invited into a captivating realm, a profound exploration of the human spirit, and a shared adventure of fascination.
Stick around for the 2024 PiP Opening Party immediately following the performance!
Can't get enough marionette madness? We have you covered! A Slice of Crazy Pie *Adult Edition! will feature a completely different set of puppets from the *Family Style performance on Saturday, September 14.
