"Please Ship This Wet Gift" by Brave Bucket Co.

“Please Ship This Wet Gift” by Brave Bucket Co.

Puppetry meets clowning in this interactive production to bring empathy, laughter, and lightness to the heavy stuff!

The audience will help out a helmet-wearing clown as she gives a “presentation” about her terrible feelings, using made-up songs, drawings, puppetry, and cardboard sharks. We’ll all work together so we’re a little more prepared for those big feelings that inevitably come our way.

All ages welcome, recommended for 4+
Clowning, with object performance
