Description
What would happen if the devil stole a man`s wife only to send her home because she was so ornery' Black Cherry Puppet Theater premieres a new work, with film influences from Kurasawa to Cat Ballou and a backdrop tinged with Appalachian myth. Folk icons Walker & Jay wrote and play the haunting soundtrack for this beautifully constructed work of visual theater. Opening acts include Katherine Fahey, Jeanine Padgett with Jim Sheehan. Suitable for mature children.
Fahey`s “Elizabeth Whitmore” is a shadow puppet show and an old time cranky with live musical accompaniment, based on a 1978 song set to the tune of an old shape note song. Elizabeth Whitmore, a regional heroine, survives winter while caring for her small child in the wilds of Vermont in the mid-eighteenth century.

Baltimore -based puppeteer, Jeanine Padgett, and playwright, Jim Sheehan debut "Journey Through the Night," based on the story by Jakov Lind. The darkly surreal and ghastly tale features rod and shadow puppets, following two characters on a nighttime train journey.
