LIMITED ENGAGEMENT-10 Performances Only Curran Theatre August 18 – 27 SHN and SF Sketchfest present a limited engagement of STUFFED AND UNSTRUNG, a night of hilarious uncensored mayhem with The Miskreant Puppets and their fearless puppeteers set loose live onstage to explore the art of improvisational comedy. Created by award-winning director, producer, writer and performer Brian Henson and actor and improvisational guru Patrick Bristow and featuring The Jim Henson Company’s renowned puppeteers, STUFFED AND UNSTRUNG will play a limited engagement of 10 performances August 18 through 27 at the Curran Theatre (445 Geary Street). Tickets go on sale July 15 at 10 am. STUFFED AND UNSTRUNG is a madcap multimedia romp in which the skilled art of puppetry and comedic intelligent nonsense collide. Unpredictable, irreverent and rebellious, it’s never the same show twice as a team of expert puppeteers set off on a trail of twisted sketches and songs at breakneck pace while interaction with the audience prompts the spontaneous storylines unfolding on stage. With live musical accompaniment and Patrick Bristow as host, STUFFED AND UNSTRUNG features a cast of six puppeteers in an uninhibited and unscripted live puppet performance. The show, described by Entertainment Weekly as “one giant Mad Lib,” is actually “two shows in one” as the hilarious puppet action is projected on large screens flanking the stage, while the puppeteers display their skillful talents below all in full view of the audience.
