Barebones has been creating spirited puppet shows for the last 20 years . There is delightful mix of whimsey intention and amazing volunteer vigor displayed by participants in this beautiful spectacle driven art form surreal and as Max Sparber refered to it as a kind of absinth dream. Gorgeous moments blend in a myriad of different shows from aerialists pouring ingredients up into the sky or ravenous Giant Baby heads swallowing people ,twenty foot swans pecking each other to death in a spell of fear or Flaming swan boat on the Mississippi. My life is so much richer for these moments and those who have shared them.
