Arriving in the Valley of the Sun after their triumphant performances and rave reviews to sell-out crowds in California, McNamara's molting, motley crew will 'hit the ground running' (so to speak) from October 10th through the 25th, with the World Premiere of The Exorcist Has No Legs at Theater Works. The show is a campy (oh, what a surprise!), comedic, puppet-infused depiction of AFI's #3 most thrilling movie, like, EVER! And what better way to pay homage to the 40th Anniversary of this epic horror tale, than with a gaggle of google-eyed puppets that rotate their heads while spewing pea soup? Click below to watch the group's response to a 'cease and desist' letter regarding this production!
The word 'Puppet' usually brings to mind an image of children's gleeful faces chortling to the antics of colorful, cute fuzzy creatures extolling the virtues of any given letter of the alphabet. Well, these aren't THOSE puppets! Arizona native Shaun Michael McNamara has returned with his All Puppet Players--bringing with him his edgy, irreverent, and wildly entertaining cast of characters, geared toward the more mature theatre-goer. Felt will fly as McNamara and his in-your-face furries team up with Theater Works in Peoria, Nearly Naked Theatre in Phoenix, and Mesa Encore Theatre in Mesa.
