Laugh, reflect, and rediscover the importance of intimacy and curiosity in a uniquely bold performance of the Sex Lives of Puppets.
“This is the good stuff–technique, strong writing, and a bit of heart and soul”
– The New York Times
Sex Lives of Puppets is a bold, funny, and heartfelt performance exploring intimacy, aging, and sexual wellbeing — all told through the unexpected voices of puppets. Inspired by real stories from the National Survey of Sexual Attitudes and Lifestyles, this clever show asks honest questions about relationships, desire, and what it means to feel connected at every stage of life. With humor and tenderness, the puppets open up about topics we often keep quiet.
Created by Blind Summit Theatre, known worldwide for reinventing what puppetry can be, this inventive production mixes playful storytelling with a serious message about health and human connection. Led by award-winning director and puppeteer Mark Down, Blind Summit’s work has appeared on some of the world’s biggest stages — from London’s 2012 Olympic Games to the Metropolitan Opera. Presented in Marroney Theatre.
This production contains sexual content, sexual images, and strong language. It is recommended for ages 16+.
