New Puppet Heap Site Launched!

There are a great deal of goings-on in the world of puppetry this fall, and there couldn't be a better time to roll out our new website.

Click here if you haven't seen it yet, and let us know what you think.

If you are a puppet enthusiast [or any kind of enthusiast], there are a whole lot of happenings that might interest you -- one of which features puppets designed by Puppet Heap's very own Anna Paniccia.

The Kentucky Goblin Siege
is running at the Kraine Theater in NYC (85 E. 4th Street) every Wednesday through November 24th.

"The Kentucky Goblin Siege is a sci-fi comedy based on accounts of one of the largest reported alien encounters in U.S. history. It's August 21, 1955, in the small town of Kelly, Kentucky, and the Sutton family is welcoming old family friends in from out of town and settling in for a night of catching up. But when strange goblin-like creatures begin to appear, all hell breaks loose. The Kentucky Goblin Siege is a hilarious play about xenophobia and reversed expectations, and will feature the biggest gun battle between human actors and alien puppets to ever grace the stage of the Kraine Theater. "


If you have a chance to catch this great show [or any others], tell us about it!
