Trouble Puppet: Year of Fundraising Dangerously Fundraiser Performance at The VORTEX

Trouble Puppet presents a one-night-only fundraiser performance showcasing the work of first-time puppet-makers. Exploring elements of American Blood Song, Trouble Puppet's 2019 operetta about the tragic saga of the Donner Party, this production focuses on the experience of a young girl in a harrowing crossing of the Great Plains and the grim fate awaiting her wagon train in the Sierra Nevada mountain range.

The performance will be roughly 30 minutes, followed by a Q&A with writer/director Connor Hopkins, Artistic Director and Janitor of Trouble Puppet Theater Company, and members of the workshop discussing their experience of puppetry.

This show addresses historical subjects suitable for ages 10+.
