About the Show
Bugs combines King’s groundbreaking instrumental guitar work with GLITCH’s projection mapping and drum-triggered sound design to create a playful world of insects, critters, and candy-filled landscapes. Audiences will experience synchronized visuals, interactive effects, and live music enriched with field recordings of real insect sounds. The show invites children and families to participate—shouting out favorite bugs, dancing like insects, and interacting with the artists in real time.
Adults will also enjoy the sophisticated audio-visual storytelling, making Bugs a performance designed for children and anyone who is a child at heart.
