WE HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE BUT OUR STRINGS:
A DIY Puppetry Workshop with Freak Nature

November 4
Doors: 5:30 PM
Event: 6 PM - 10 PM

As the finale event in our Laugh to Keep from Crying Series, Freak Nature joins us for DIY puppet workshop.

A specter is haunting Los Angeles — the specter of puppetry. And Freak Nature Puppets is here to guide you through this revolution. Build crazy giant DIY puppets out of free & scavenged materials, pursue collective goofiness, and reorient your creative process in the name of fun, cheap, plentiful art. In other words — release your inhibitions; feel the rain on your skin. No experience necessary.

This workshop has limited capacity, and we hope to make it accessible to all while covering the cost of labor. All tickets are for the exact same experience, and all proceeds go towards Freak Nature and the BBMT.

Tickets are set at the following tiers:

  • Struggling Puppeteer Like Us: $25

  • Standard Ticket (100% Super-Verified FNP xPerienz™️): $50

  • Pay It Forward Ticket: $100 (This level is for patrons of the arts who wish to help cover the costs of the workshop and make it accessible to all.) 

Please note, this workshop is recommended for ages 13+.
