CHINA in no particular order!
First we played in Shanghai at the Shanghai Theatre Academy after teaching an impromptu workshop. We spent a day visiting temples, gardens, and even the Bund Sightseeing Tunnel (it is as ridiculous as it sounds).
The next week we played at the Beijing Performing Arts Center, a massive series of spaces outside the city center in Tongzhou. Working with their team was lovely especially my sound pal @younge_andy what a delight! We managed to carve out some time to visit the Great Wall and the zoo (I am not big on zoos but it was still sweet to do a trip with the team), ending in a white table cloth Peking Duck lunch before our very long journey home.
Thanks to everyone from all the teams involved! And what a ride it was with ours @instadeej@jahbiggins@tarynuhe@lazmattarus and @csrapoport and @elsiemgmt from afar. And to @performance_infinity for making it happen
Thanks China, let’s do it again sometime.
After the success of @bills44th and the chaos of @latenightpuppettalkshow we’re an official puppet company! Follow along here to find out what’s going on in the world of Official Puppet Business!

Hi there! Self-producing is hard but we are having a great time. If you haven’t got your tickets yet to @bills44th it would mean a lot if you bought them now instead of waiting. It helps us a great deal.
And of course Bill would love to see you at his birthday!
He is waiting for you… and so are we! If you need a cheaper ticket LET ME KNOW. 🥳❤️🎈
