Talk to the HAND – an
IMPROV puppet show
WELLINGTON’S FAVOURITE FUNNY
PEOPLE – WITH PUPPETS!
For the first time in New Zealand The Improvisors combine their comedic talents with puppetry to create a magical sketch show hybrid between The Muppets and Whose Line is it Anyway?
Using everything from state of the art puppets (borrowed from Capital E!), hand puppets (stolen from small children) - even socks, The Improvisors will create an original puppet show every night using audience suggestion, music and sparkling wit!
The cast of six Improvisors have had to learn an entirely new skill working with these puppets – pushing them all out side their IMPROV comfort zones into scary new territory. “It’s the same feeling we had when first taking on a full length IMPROV Musical”, says Improvisor Greg Ellis. “It’s new, dangerous and scary for us, which is exciting!”
Talk to the Hand – the only puppet show in the Comedy Festival where the audience pulls the strings!
