SERIES AT THE TANK
PUPPET PLAYLIST
Puppet Playlist is a regular evening series of puppetry and music by some of New York’s most interesting puppeteers and singer-songwriters. Each show has a theme inspired by a musician or band. Each show features original puppet acts, alternating with live covers, based on the theme musician or band.
Performers (and their work) have been seen all over New York, across the country, and throughout the world, on, off- and off-off-Broadway, at HERE Arts Center, Shakespeare in the Park, the Metropolitan Opera, FringeNYC, Lincoln Center, with Jim Henson Productions, and on both American and International TV.

Puppet Playlist is made possible in part by a generous grant from Heather Henson’s Puppet Slam Network.
Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? Or is it Puppet Playlist: #28: Queen? Were not telling. But its guaranteed to blow your mind.
Puppet Playlist takes brilliant puppeteers and talented musicians and slams them together into an evening of live theater to stir the senses. To avoid complications, weve kept the same address. Were back at the Tank for three shows in October. This Playlist features original works of puppetry inspired by the Killer Queen himself, mixed with live musical interpretations by some of New Yorks most exciting young singer-songwriters.

About the Show
I've got one hand in my puppet and the other is buying a ticket to Puppet Playlist #25: Alanis Morissette! You heard right, in addition to being played by Idina Menzel on Broadway, Alanis is going to be represented by puppets at Triskelion Arts (the Broadway of Brooklyn). Yes this Canadian 90's pop icon is finally getting her Puppet Playlist debut and our middle school selves are clutching our friendship bracelets with excitement.

Whitney Houston is known for a lot of things. Shes the only artist to chart seven consecutive #1 songs. I Will Always Love You is the best-selling single of all time (and that doesnt even count Dollys version). And shes in the Guinness Book of World Records for being the most-awarded female artist ever. But you know what shes not famous for? Puppets.
Were going to change that.
Thats right, its Puppet Playlist #24: Whitney Houston! And we will always love telling you about the incredible show that weve got in store for you. Weve assembled a team of great puppeteers and musicians that are sure to make anyone feel like a Queen of the Night.
So come on down to Triskelion Arts on July 13th or July 14th (or both??) and watch some puppets be danced by somebody. (See what we did there?)
Featuring performances by: Ariel Lauryn, Michael Schupbach, Jake Bazel, Megan Barbour, Mery Cheung, Christine Schisano, Miss Olithea and more!
