About The Event
OUT is a visual, multidisciplinary show, an original training tale told through the imaginative language of puppetry, a poem for adults, which can also be seen by children. An initiatory journey that leads the protagonist out of the house, a metaphor for certainties, to put him in relation with the world and with its inevitable contrasts. The poetic language of the different techniques used transports the audience into a dream dimension, transmitting its universal message through the use of archetypes.
About The Organizer
Founded in 1961 by Ellen Stewart, La MaMa is a home for artists of all identities, races, ages, and cultures. At La MaMa, artists are provided the space, support, and creative freedom to explore new forms of expression and to make new work. La MaMa builds audiences that are integral to the creative process. Our local and global community members who gather in our physical, digital, and hybrid spaces to see new work, are often the first audience for that work. The audience response helps to shape the evolution of the piece for the artist, and is an essential part of the creative ecosystem that La MaMa nurtures. La MaMa believes art is a force for change. Violence, discrimination, and systemic racism will not stop without a unified resistance. La MaMa is committed to battling bigotry and intolerance in all its forms, and to providing inclusive spaces for our local, national, and global community.
Please Note
The La MaMa Puppet Festival showcases new contemporary puppet theatre by artists from around the world. Curated by Denise Greber, focusing on diversifying the voices, stories, and perspectives shared onstage, with the goal of uplifting marginalized identities within the puppet community.
