Surreal marionette cabaret
Hand-carved puppets turn a gathering into a peculiar little cabaret.
Cripps Creations
Vida and Madison J. Cripps invite event bookings through their multidisciplinary studio. Madison’s named puppetry repertoire includes A Slice of Crazy Pie, recently presented as a surreal cabaret combining carved wooden marionettes, harmonica and audience exchanges. This is a performance inquiry for handmade, absurdist puppet theater rather than a standard character appearance.
