Stepping into the mystical, magical and absolutely absurd world of Ingrid Hansen is always an honour. If you’re looking for an unforgettable and cheeky experience, this spicy puppet cabaret is the show to see!
Epidermis Circus — performing at Meridian Theatres @ Centrepointe from Jan. 30-Feb. 1 — is a spicy puppet cabaret where performer Ingrid Hansen makes a live puppet film on stage. It’s the weirdest puppet show you’ve ever seen!
The Merkin Sisters is a theatrical piece of few words—but that doesn’t mean it has nothing to say. In contrast, the sparseness of its words makes those it does include stand out even more. An exasperated verbal mention of art is even more powerful when it comes after minutes of silence.
Brian Carroll: “Often laugh out loud funny, combining dance, live music, giant shadow puppetry and live video wizardry, Kitt & Jane also has touching moments where these two middle-schoolers reveal depths of feeling that they would rather we not see. Not everyone’s cup of tea, but you won’t know unless you try.”
BFFs: “Kitt & Jane is a fun and fast paced show, with tons of big laughs, some musical stylings, lots of overhead projections and pie. Underneath the comedy, the show makes a statement on the state of the world and how dire things really are.”
Kate Carmanico: “Interstellar Elder is a Fringe masterpiece.”
Eric Coates: “Spray some theatre at me.”
The 8th undercurrents festival is running from February 7–17 at Arts Court Theatre and the National Arts Centre. Tickets cost $20–25 and admission to some shows is on a pay-what-you-can basis.
